  1. I'm really thrilled with your blog, it's gorgeous. I love not only the paintings but also the concept that is behind the whole blog, at least, the concept that I get.
    I am looking for my own Ariadna right now, more or less. For sure I'm in a search. Your blog is one of the things I found in my quest, I would like to discover also you if you don't mind.
    Ich kann auch ein bischen Deutsch sprechen, aber nicht sehr gut. Ich weiss nicht ob sie Englisch sprechen...
    Forgive my mistakes.
    Well let's see what we find on each other. Leave a comment on my blog if you're interested. My gmail is saintsupplice@gmail.com
    Bis bald.
