Right Nick, they create only for themselves. So I often find a lonly little house lost in a faraway side of the mountain with a simple arrow near the door and the sign: "Exposition". No one enter, no one buy but he goes on curving wood, for whom if not for themself?
Thanks for you beautiful comments Nick. Take care.
Giuseppe

Yes, it is surprising how many artists, and real good ones, you will find out there, doing their work in peace and quiet, without even thinking of taking part in any "get widely known" mechanisms. They do what they do for their own creative mind, and that's at least a very sincere approach. Some of them, like for example E. L. Kirchner, did get widely known, but not so much out of the own wish.
A very simple photo at first glance, but if one takes a look again, it reveals the same attitude as that of those isolated artists. The old woman sees much more than she talks about. The impression and the following silent thoughts are stronger than the verbal expression. But not stronger than the expression in her face. What might she be looking at? The next winter coming? Shadows approaching? Some magical scene that reminds her of times past? On this photo it is not so important what she looks at, but how! Her painting like appearance makes that even stronger, but stronger in silence. And as we know, the real power lives in quietness.
The mountains and the flowers themselves are of course wonderful but only when a living being perceives them. Even if it is a piece of arts made out of wood.

A great find this is. The composition is wonderful as you imagine that this is a real woman gazing out her window. What a fun suprise to learn that this is not a real woman afterall. Splendid, wonderful detail.

The artist sure did a great job. She looks pretty real staring out the window at the scenery. Great picture.

Great character study, Giuseppe! I like the old wood paired with the old face (also wooden?) - very well seen!

Molto bella.
Il soggetto e sicuramente caratteristico, e mi piace molto il fatto che il contesto si legge in pochi dettagli. Complimenti.

Grazie Alessandro. E' un a serie molto breve. Sto cogliendo i diversi aspetti della montagna, passando a soggetti sempre più piccoli. Poi toccherà al sottobosco, fiori, funghi, insetti; sempre serie di poche immagini, spesso simboliche.
Ciao.
