Hey guys! I'm Alex. It's a joy connecting with you all.
I'm a painter, so I share my understanding and way of life and self through art.
My wish is to impact and inspire people through my art, as well as my writings based on that which impacts what and how I paint.
The heart of all that is the recognition of the essential being that we are, as well as the integration of that into an ordinary human life with its human challenges, imperfections and limitations.
In my understanding we cannot escape our humanity, but we can be lovingly awake to our true nature in the midst of life, moment to moment, no matter how scary, painful or heartbreaking it is.
I am here, joining this challenge, in order to improve and refine my way of showing up and reaching out to the world through social media. I definitely have a lot to learn as this is definitely not my strong side. On a related note, I also want more engagement in my posts, and of course be better at materialising it all into sales.
It's been a joy to read through your introductions and read your stories and the ways you are showing up in the world, as well as the way you intend to move forward. The world clearly needs people like you.
A funfact about me... The bone in my nose is very elastic, so I can squeeze my nose completely flat without any problems or pain😄
Here is a picture of me and my girlfriend, as well as a little painting I made earlier this year.
