Golden Beach, a corner of heaven placed on Cyprus. perfect mind calming place, far away from city lights and other people. Rather, the habitants of the place are free, wild Cyprus donkeys, and the witnesses of Cyprus history, the marine turtles!! Unfortunately i do feel its days are counted. Touristic settlements of hotels and resorts must be waiting for the day, on which they will be free to destroy this piece of paradise into the pages of unnecessary civilization. democracy is so unfairly shaped in Cyprus that, i don't know if any affort to save the place from soon-to-come destruction.
First I thought, this place is Patara at the Mediterranian coast of Turkey, then I read that it is Cyprus. I think I should visit this place, looks fantastic. thanks for putting such a beautiful image with us
It truly is a part of heaven, crashlanded into a rather unconsciously industrialised island. This beach will be lost before a preservation law is passed or is active, yet such is the case in countries where the primary interest is jobs and welfare. In North Cyprus job opportunities are dismal and some people don't earn enough even to support themselves. It is perfectly normal that industrialisation is put before preservation, because the first means jobs, the latter means maybe some jobs but not enough. The point is when there is enough welfare, there won't be anything left to preserve and we will all choke to death, breathing our own lungs' export. ('Future Noir' isn't it? Sorry!)
PS: Inanc the painting is made with simple acryllics and PVA glue. I'll explain when I see you next.
