An happy Friday to you all!
Today is a special day for me and my hubby @paolobeneforti because 10 years ago we got married! Yes, today is our 10° wedding anniversary,we celebrate 10 years of love and life together. ❤️
During the previous days we thought a lot about what we could do to celebrate this date in the better way, but at the end we decided for something simple: after the dinner we will go in the main square of my city where there will be a sort of small music festival. ^_^
The painting for today (I painted this piece soon in the morning) is a small home. You have to know that when we decided to get married we drew the invitation card by ourselves and the main element of that drawing was a small home so you can understand why I decided to paint it today.
At the end of this content you can see a pic of our wedding day, me and my hubby younger, thinner and with no white hair on our heads. :P
You can see the final result of the painting for today in the following pic:
It's a mixed media (oil colors, acrylic colors and white ink) painting on 200 gsm paper in A6 size and, like I use to do for you, I took some pics while I was painted this small piece so you can see the process too:
Soon I'll add this new artwork to my Artfinder shop (link at the bottom)!
I hope you like it and, as I promise, a pic of our wedding day 10 years ago:
See ya soon and stay safe,
Silvia

Greetings Dear Silvia,
Happy Anniversary!
So happy for you two....lovely wedding photo....thank you for letting us/ Hive enjoy your celebration with you. ^__^
Wishing you and Paolo many more years together.
Caio/Cheers!
How nice you are together and both artists, can it get any better? Today is Midsummer Eve, the longest day of the year. Our whole family will celebrate with wreaths in their hair and lots of good food. There will be starters on our table, with herring and new potatoes, strawberries and a few soups with Swedish brandy for those who want! Those who have not found a partner must then walk across 7 yarrow gardens and pick 7 kinds of flowers, walk around a well backwards blindfolded, when you open your eyes the first man or woman will be their partner for life!!
So congratulations to you both!
Thanks so much, dear @mandragora88 ! Such a beautiful (and romantic!) ritual for people who have not found a partner. ❤️ Here in Italy, in the ancient time, people used to light fires on the fields to banish of bad spirits and demons (the most part of our traditional rituals are about to banish bad things :D ) but now the most part of traditional rituals are in the night of Saint John (June 23) because the influence of the Christian Church that wanted people forget the no Christian traditions. We use to collect wild plants in the night of the june 23 to make the "Saint John's water" that give us best wishes for health, love and others.
That little house symbolizes marriage. The union of two people already creates a home, marriage builds a home. Even if not made of stone, you know that a home in a person's heart now exists
Happy anniversary @silviabeneforti, I love that photo of you both.
Also the tiny home you have painted xx
Thanks so much!!! ❤️
Happy Anniversary 🎉
Ooh wow
Congratulations to you and your hubby for your 10th year marriage
Also, I hope you enjoy the outing after dinner and I must confess that the artwork is lovely
Thanks so much. ❤️❤️❤️
