“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet.  Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the Universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don’t just give up.” ~ Stephen Hawking

Hallo! Welcome to my website!

My name is Lola Josipa Kecman and I am from Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina. I currently am an artist that lives in Winnipeg, Canada. Back home, I finished education to become a teacher and took two years in fine arts. I have lived in different countries, and continents so many cultures have influenced my art. During schooling I was an outstanding student in art and won many awards. I’ve had a few exhibitions here in different galleries in Winnipeg. At present, my painting “BRITTANIE” is in Russia at the exhibit “Angels of Peace” and my painting “DISROBED” is in Croatia at the art project “100 artists against corona”.
I hope you’ll enjoy my art.

Life is like the road. Some call it a lane, course, route, track, a drive... It’s a wide way leading from one place to another, or it could be the series of events or actions that will lead to a particular outcome. Some of us might take the road to success, some can stop down the road or pass us and go much more ahead. Some might regret about the road not taken, and the most will try to take the road home and to happiness. A few might even take the revolutionary road or the road less traveled. The road definitely has the bumps and obstacles but we still keep going. Sometimes it takes unexpected turn and you have no choice but to follow it, to end up in the place you are supposed to be. Looking at this painting I’m seeing the road of my life and learning that for sure there are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

Your time is coming and so many blessings are near. Keep praying and hoping, and watch your life change for the better. Something is taking care of us. Trust that. We all finally slowed down and can enjoy the simplest pleasures in life, us alone and our own family. Focus on your loved ones, the family is sacred. We still learn something every day and that is knowledge. Wisdom is letting go of something every day. Respect Nature, and in every walk in with nature one receives far more then he seeks.
