Original artwork description:

I remember waking up in the morning before leaving for the exhibition and began frantically sketching out a sketch, as if afraid that I would miss something. Although, I was going to draw something completely different while sitting at the exhibition. But my heart was pounding and it was important to grab this image as soon as possible. This very rarely happens when I feel the excitement and importance of the moment in which the doors just for a moment opened for me.

When I, sitting on exhibition "Equiros" under my stand with paintings, began to draw this story with paints, I began to feel happiness, and at the same time I felt a lump in my throat. I really wanted to cry. Not from sadness, but as if there was just some very bright and strong feeling that filled me completely.

Suddenly, the work stopped and I realized that I could not continue to draw. In general, it began to seem to me that something was very strongly wrong in the painting and I needed to start this story over again.

I put this story aside and decided that when the time was right, I would return.

And now three weeks have passed and the other day in the morning I find out that my friends had a mare with a foal in her womb. There was no way to save her.

Somewhat shocked by this news, for some reason I climbed onto the shelf where I have small albums and folders with various paper for graphics. And suddenly the very unfinished plot that I wanted to redraw falls into my hands.

I look at him and understand that it is She, the same mare with her foal, before birth and before death. Everything is one, She says, looking at me from the picture. And then the memories of those sensations, that happiness and a coma in the throat, came up.

I wanted to start all over again, but She said that only here and only now. It won't be in the other picture.

And I gave up, deciding not to argue and just finishing what I started a few weeks ago.
