We've been engulfed in a dance of hate to appease self swam in pools of confusion
to find solace cultivated in land of vengeance, to be at peace and dread the harvest of sin.
We have drowned spirit of joy to create sorrow and solitude of self in attempt to stay king in world of selfishness
Stepped on souls of meek and weak brutalized heads on our way to the top to be rewarded by nature.
Look up to the moon and sacred mountains of the sky. Listen to the songs of sacred land.
Feel the healing wind of sea. Step into the vibrations of energizing songs of sun.
Let's dance beyond rhythm of sorrow. Lift our legs and hands in praise of life.
Dance to the wind of drums for the rejuvenation of souls.

Timothy Martin is a classically trained fine artist who first gained widespread recognition when he was selected by Tiffany & Company to display artwork in its Manhattan flagship on Fifth Avenue. Since that time Martin’s renown has spread internationally with the publication of dozens of reproductions of his often whimsical work, as well as exhibitions from New York to Paris. Timothy Martin’s paintings continue to enchant audiences worldwide. Chairs that charm, phantasmagorical furniture, musical instruments that mesmerise and tantalising teapots.

На картине в центре комнаты изображена в профиль молодая девушка перед открытым окном. На переднем плане находится стол, на котором в складках скатерти стоит ваза с фруктами. Взгляд девушки обращён на письмо, которое она держит в руке, её лицо отражается на оконном стекле. Как показала рентгенограмма, занавес на правом крае картины появился позднее, скрыв изображённого там изначально купидона. В картине ощущается скрытый эротический подтекст. Так, яблоки и персики в фруктовой вазе являются намёком на грехопадение Адама и Евы. Открытое окно трактуется как желание вырваться из замкнутого помещения.

In May 1928, Miró travelled from Paris to the Netherlands and included the Rijksmuseum in his itinerary. He also took two home two postcards, which were colour reproductions of paintings from the Rijksmuseum collection: The lute player by Hendrick Martensz. Sorgh (1661) and Children teaching a cat to dance better known as The dancing lesson by Jan Havicksz. Steen (c. 1660-1679). Both paintings feature a musician, surrounded by one or more listeners, a cat and a dog. In the Dutch interiors, the scenes undergo a complete metamorphosis, as Miró captures these figures in his own surreal fantasy world. In summer 1928, during a visit to his studio on the family farm Montroig in Catalonia, Miró drew inspiration from these two picture postcards, creating the three paintings later entitled Dutch interiors. Rather than working spontaneously as he usually did, he prepared an extensive series of sketches and drawings. The paintings are currently part of the collections of the Museum of Modern Art (New York), the Peggy Guggenheim Collection (Venice) and the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York). The postcards, sketches and drawings were donated by Miró to the Museum of Modern Art and the Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona) in the seventies.
By working in this way, Miró subscribed to a long tradition of ‘creative copying’, whereby artists reinterpreted the masterworks of predecessors, using them as a source of inspiration for new artworks.
