Tentoonstelling Wambeek Achteraf - Review of the Wambeek Exhibition

De tentoonstelling ten bate van de Kind Nefrologie afdeling van het Academisch Ziekenhuis van Leuven "Gasthuisberg" ging onder een koud weekend bijna ten onder.

De regen heeft evenwel niet kunnen verhelen dat ik toch, tot mijn grote verbijstering, in totaal een 9 tal schilderijtjes heb verkocht waarvan 50% naar het Academisch Ziekenhuis gaat. De andere 50% investeer ik weer in materiaal om zo een volgend Goed Doel weer financieel een riem onder het hart te steken.  Uiteindelijk wordt het zo voor mezelf een zelfbedruipende aangelegenheid, al die tentoonstellingen voor Goede Doelen.

Een sfeerbeeld kun je bekijken op deze link.

De schilderijen die verkocht werden, waren al zeker de volgende waarvan ik sommige met pijn in het hart diende los te laten. Echt geven start daar waar het pijn begint te doen.








The exposition, organised to support the department of "Child Nefrology" of the Academical Hospital of the University of Leuven, almost drowned in a cold weekend.

The rain and the cold however couldn't prevent the selling, to my own bewilderment, of 9 paintings. 50% of the price went to the Hospital. The other 50% will be used to invest in new material in order to be able to deliver new paintings for other charities. Eventually this leads to a self-reinforcing process of profits to deliver new paintings for future charities.

You can have an impression of the exhibition by following this link.

Some of the paintings sold are mentioned in this "article". Some of them were difficult to let go. But genuine giving starts a the spot where pain starts to emerge.

Beautiful Music - Adele Chasing Pavements





I've made up my mind,
Don't need to think it over,
if I'm wrong I am right,
Don't need to look no further,
This ain't lust,
i know this is love, but!

If i tell the world,
I'll never say enough,
Cause it was not said to you,
And thats exactly what i need to do,
If i'm in love with you,

Should i give up?
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If i knew my place, should i leave it there?
Should i give up?
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere

I'd build myself up,

And fly around in circles,
Wait then as my heart drops,
and my back begins to tingle
finally could this be, it ah

Should i give up?
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If i knew my place, should i leave it there?
Should i give up?
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere

yeaaa
(talking/singing)
Should i give up?
Or should i just keep chasing pavements?
Even if it leads nowhere,
Or would it be a waste?
Even If i knew my place, should i leave it there?
Should i give up?
Or should i just keep on chasing pavements?
should i just keep on chasing pavements?

ohhhhhhh

should i give up?
or should i just keep chasing pavements?
even if it leads nowhere,
or would it be a waste?
even if i knew my place,should i leave it there?
should i give up?
or should i just keep chasing pavements?
even if it, leads nowhere.
