Hi dear sisters !

I would like you try the amazing effect about sketching with chinese black ink or a simple black marker pen permanent and after with some touches of watercolor.

You could got to the old time of five or six centuries ago.

Thanks for your visits !

HI BEAUTIES ! A WONDERFUL SKETCH WITH A LOVELY POEM, BUT DON’T MISS THE AMAZING SONG. HAPPY WEDNESDAY!

Everything I Never Told You

She tries it on,
like a dress
She twirls
in the mirror.

It’s beautiful and
compliments her form.
Gloved fit
She knows this is the one

She can’t wait to take
it home, but then
she notices the hem
unraveling.

And how restrictive
it is around the chest.

The way the color
seems to mock her cool tones.

She sighs.
So much for
the right fit.

She rips it off.
Her skin comes too.

Living in a grateful state of mind

HI BEAUTIES! SINCE SOME YEARS AGO THAT I KNOW THIS ARTIST AND I ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT SHE IS SOMEONE MORE THAN A SIMPLE DESIGNER OF JEWELERY AS HER WORKS SAY THAT SHE COULD BE AN EXCELLENT PAINTER OR SCULPTURER. SHE IS CONTINOUSLY AMAZING!

Hello dear friends,

It’s been awhile since I posted on my blog and when this happens, we usually say that life got in the way. I see things differently and I think that life arranged things beautifully and challenged me to step out of my comfort zone and I am grateful for this.

So I also wanted to be part of this wave of gratefulness that I see all around and thank the Universe for all the beautiful things that came my way:

• During this summer we moved from Thionville (a small town in the north of France) to a smaller town in  the central-est part of  France( that is very close to Switzerland and that has a wonderful mountain scenery all around) and this is a dream come true for me.
• I recently completed my assignments for the New York Institute of Art and Design, which is an online…

embroidered room mandala…

HI BEAUTIES! HERE WE’VE GOT A NICE MANDALA FOR A NICE DAY. HAPPY SUNDAY!

embroidered room mandala

I wanted the colours for this one to be very rich with mostly purples, reds and oranges. This is a “mini-mandala” so about 6″ in diameter but there is a lot packed in so here is a detail.

embroidered room – detail

As usual, Tom saw even more curious things than I did. This new poem encapsulates a whole story!

The lamps are lit, the wheels must turn
let the toothy gears engage
opening the secret urn
decoding all the truths the Sage
encrypted on four secret scrolls
each entire and carefully rolled
hidden well ’til they were stoled
then to a Magus quickly sold!
Now in London they do lie
waiting for the seance start
where the Sage’s beating heart
will for justice–vengeance–cry
within the rich embroidered room
where four men go to meet their doom!

Deadly in Love: No Flowers, Dignity and Rights by Vanessa Rivera de la Fuente

HI SISTERS! TODAY IS THE INTERNATIONAL DAY AGAINST THE VIOLENCE OF GENDER AND I WANT TO DENOUNCE A SHAMELESS FACT THAT HAPPENED IN THE TYPICAL PARTY OF THE SANFERMINES IN PAMPLONA (SPAIN) https://www.google.es/amp/s/elpais.com/elpais/2017/11/23/inenglish/1511448518_599163.amp.html

“We don’t want flowers, we want rights.” Kollectiva La Calle (The Street Collective)

Vanessa Vazquez Laba, a scholar feminist and researcher in gender studies in Argentina, with whom I share a first name, activism, and intellectual interests, hits me on Valentine’s Day with the following message:

There have been 57 femicides in the first 43 days of 2017 in the country, and the government has suspended the funding of universities for research on gender based violence.

57 femicides in 43 days…

A heartbreaking message to receive in Valentine’s day, isn´t it?

What does this mean? According to the definition accepted by the majority of women’s rights activists and scholars, “Femicide is a sex-based crime, generally understood to involve intentional murder of women because they are women.” . The World Health Organization states that a Femicide is:

Usually perpetrated by men. Most cases of femicide in the world are committed by partners or ex-partners…
