Justification

2015-08-09T15:35:00.004+03:00

While painting I was wandering around the dreamland, but the time came to awake. Lots of exhibitions were arranged but can they be defined as public talking? The sharing of the received visions looks like talking with the art showroom's dead wall. The same talking to myself.

Only your comments can justify the threatening sky and give meaning to blogging.

Tomas Karkalas - photo WE BOTH ARE ALIKE

Recognition of ourselves in others is a key to success. An accidental photo helped me to grasp the above truth. The reminder helps me not stumble on my road.

Butterfly in the plaster greets you.

2015-02-19T16:26:00.002+02:00

The lack of dye stimulated creativity and improved blood circulation in the body, which made the artist very productive in me. I have held sixty-six solo exhibitions of my paintings.

The smell of various thinners has long forgotten my room, and paint brushes have become bouquets of dry flowers in a vase on my living room table. Nevertheless, my eyes shine not with tears but with joy. do you find it strange?
Let me explain that. I used to call all my work by the same name, ”a painting from the cycle of self-discovery". That was a prophetic insight: the brushes were forgotten in the vase, and the heart opened to Jesus. The painter died, but Tomas Karkalas (butterfly in plaster) reborn on Facebook.

Beauty is not the flowers but the wish to draw them

2015-02-15T01:19:00.000+02:00

The beauty is not the flowers, but the desire to draw them

Looking at my life from the outside can look painfully black, or just a fantastic story. A story that anyone who knows me would tell in the most contrasting colors. For example, I am a hopeless patient whose life is a miracle of medicine, an unemployed disabled person, a perpetual moaner ... or vice versa, a well-known artist, a photographer - a great figure who never talks about himself. Each of these statements is easy to document, as is the truth that most people who know everything have already gone beyond. What's common is that everyone recognizes that I've learned something somewhere, that I'm not self-taught, but no one can say exactly what I learned and where.
Well, I tell myself I'm sitting at home now and write:

While being inside, I enjoy the sun outside.

Isn't it a miracle to want to be the most beautiful flower and say "Thank you" in a windy winter?

That's what I am. And that's why I draw and do everything I just do, and gratefulness lives in my creations

transformational art

2015-02-12T16:16:00.001+02:00

The transformation took place as I looked at the green grass by the wall in a busy city and my heart changed a dull view into the unique landscape. Such way Tomas Karkalas became the artist. It would be nice to hear your story. Thank you.

Tomas Karkalas ~ photo New Life - 2015

Secret of the beauty lies in the symbolism of the picture. Do you see it? What's the message of the photo?

Tomas Karkalas ~PILIAROŽĖ /ROSE MALLOW ~ 2015

tikrai yra daugybė kur kas gražesnių gėlių , tačiau svarbu ne tai.

Svarbiausia norėti piešti gėles -

tikėti gyvenimo grožiu ,

net ir tada, kai dangus tampa juodas

my homeland

2014-01-15T21:40:00.001+02:00

I was taking pictures of the homeland from close up because I was trying to avoid all the distractions. In the photo, we see a tree in close-up. and not even the whole tree, but only the ground into it, only the hollow leading the observer to the realm of the leafy root mystery.
so elementary photography magically turns into a fairy tale. In close-up, we see what a castle is like. A castle where only our own beating heart echoes.
In a word, I was talking to the child inside me until the fall, so to speak.

SELF-PORTRAIT IN DISGUISE AS A FLOWER ~ Tomas Karkalas

dreams had dawned

2013-12-26T22:23:00.001+02:00

Dreams had dawned while viewing the archives. THEN I was used not separate myself from my environment...It looked right, yet WHY the body became the tired?
Is it natural?
On the other hand, the archives enabled me to wake up: reminded the times when the seeing of my footprints everywhere were the obligatory to each my picture - such was and is my viewpoint now too.

lost in fairyland / your choice

2013-12-18T20:53:00.003+02:00

We can call this painting either "lost in fairyland" or "scandal".
one image and the ability to interpret his message differently. That's what creative work is all about - choosing between dreams and truth. What would you choose?
different messages.

digital painting BUTTERFLY IN THE PLASTER by Tomas Karkalas

The picture is the picture, yet the title ARTWORK enables us to include the wisest, the most challenging ideas in the image, to name a sheet of paper as the visual thoughts.
On the other hand, the fine arts deal with the great discoveries. For example, I named the above picture the Butterfly in the Plaster.
Yes, it is impossible to imagine such thing, but Butterfly in the Plaster isn't a fantasy - it's me. The interaction of the disabler with his environment portrays the butterfly in the plaster. He is my nickname.
Yes I am able to play, and I am playing. But such confession does not embellish the portrait of the aged who wish to look a wise man. What to do?

"There's no beauty that you could perceive or create if it were not already within you." ~ Peter Shepherd

The Survey of the Creativity / Tomas Karkalas

People prefer the clear answers to the discussions, the dogmas which shut the door to the gentle breath of the Spirit.,
The garden of our faith bloom in an awesome color when we kneel down, but all the flowers wither away if we fence them with our limited understanding.

The Christians can't live without the sharing of their faith. That's our gratitude to God and grateful humility -my digital painting The Survey of the Creativity.

2013-11-19T20:21:00.001+02:00

I have checked my dustbin and found lots of interesting sketches there. Now I am going to share one. That's a picture of my heart. This digital painting looks like a watercolor - smells like a fresh breath... is that not symbolical? Dustbin treasures...

the study of the self /self discovery by Tomas Karkalas - endurance

The endurance or the blindness? Help!
It is easy to look wise, to talk about life in general.. but that is beneficial indeed: the silence represent the solitude- the place that offers a shelter to the sages and thus opens the gates to the fairyland. Each and all throw down the badges of their social rank at the entrance there.

People were given two ears and one tongue so that they may listen more than they speak. -- Jewish Folk Saying

Two ears are enough to swallow down the picture, but that would result in a gag if without the author’s foreword. Even the best artwork is dead if it goes without comments. Yes, we have only one tongue, but if without it, the life would be the living with the disabilities.Let's rescue this apple from such destiny. Well?

untitled hero

This Untitled Hero met me at the entrance to the hospital of people with the psychiatric disorders. I had my camera and took a picture:

Green Persistence

photo Green Persistence by Tomas Karkalas from Klaipeda, Lithuania.

Yiddish Proverb states "What soap is to the body, laughter is to the soul."

We see two pillars of the humanity there, yet what is the place of the fine arts?

The wind can be the southeaster or wester, but how to define a sip of fresh breath?

Where from life giving miracle comes?

I went outside and took the photo. The leaflets were green, despite the totally unsuitable conditions for the growth. That could be the wonderful illustration of the art therapy - the heavy case histories of the patients (the background) and their pictures that shine with peace (the green leaflets) ...
Thus the photo supported me greatly, and it looked so inspiring.
