Spring caught in colors

This is a painting that I received from a good friend of mine, Violeta Lacatusu. She is a wonderful human being and a talented writer and painter and was my teacher in high school.

Welcome Spring!

Yesterday I cleaned the balcony to greet the spring.
In such moments I remember life lived for 20 years in a house with a beautiful garden, in my hometown.
Now I live in a block and have to be satisfied only by the small garden on the balcony.

Victorian Beauty

Since I know me, I was attracted by the Victorian period. Victorian period is the time when I think I lived a past life.
The most beautiful things left from those times, are cameos which I appreciate greatly.

DSC06134

This is the first cameo which I have received as a gift from an old bookseller in my hometown.

DSC06122

The passion I have, has grown in time and now I'm glad that I have a mini collection of cameos which I present to you with much pleasure.
