The Walk

The Walk

No one can put you in a corner.

It will come the moment,
that you will stand up strongly
and walk out from that dark tunnel
and finally face the light.

You would be trembling
you would be afraid
this walk seems so long…

you would be gasping
you would be tired
but you will be stronger step after step.

The immense love you have inside, will hold your hand tight,
your beautiful soul will lead your way to the light,
your courage will bring you out

you will be proud
You will be free
the Savior would be there to hold you always.

Sketching Realistic Eyes

Realistic Eye
Realistic Eye

I enjoy sketching in general, this time is not one of my jewelry sketches. I am working and having fun sketching realistic eyes, it is amazing the effect that can turn out just playing with a HB #2 pencil and a couple of pastels to give a hint of color. I made this sketch pretty quickly, so it is a very rough drawing. I am planning to make some more high definition ones. If you step back a bit from your screen you will see that this eye it is pretty realistic!

Please leave me a comment and let me know what do you think? :-)

If you leave your soul go free and have the courage to put yourself out there,
YOU can be an Angel to someone else.

I hope that you enjoy it!

Have a wonderful day you all!

Joanne had a beautiful post about her travelling experience around Europe and to Venice in Italy
she found  that my watercolor painting was just visually what she has seen, her post was My place in time…
I was so happy to know that my Art gave such emotion, bringing back beautiful memories
of her time spent in Venice. I found it to be a very special way for us to connect here.
I love her work, and I am very happy that we crossed paths and that in a way I can support her journey.

1) I have been surronded by Art all my life my father is an amazing Artist and Oil Painter some of his beautiful painting are here somewhere in US, and in other Countries, he used to sell in a Gallery that was exporting Art from Italy to all over the world. He has been also winner of several Art shows.

3) One of my first passion in Art beside the love for drawing, has been and still is Fashion Design. I started to create fashion clothing for my Barbie Dolls, they were my inspiring Muses. I was able and loved to create beautiful dresses from scrap of fabrics, I was years ahead with the up-cycling…:-) I learned all the secrets to perfectly sewing from my mom, that was precious to me to learn such a great skill, that was perfect for my passion, and benefit me later in life as useful for my Fashion Design freelance, and job positions as Fashion Expert for several nice brands. I have in my plan for the future, to add to my Jewelry Collections also some unique and one of a kind fashion designs Collection.

4) Talking about Fashion my favorite store here in US which I loved as soon I discovered it is:
Anthro LogoIt was love at first sight for me, their products clothings and home decor style are beautiful! I had the privilege to work for them, and I loved it! I always enjoy visiting their stores, they have amazing layouts and displays, there are several stores opened in Europe too.

5) I am a Mom and I have a wonderful and beautiful 11 years old daughter:
for my BDay

6) I am Italian and who doesn’t like Italian food!!! I love to cook, and I am creative also while cooking I don’t like too much to follow recipes, I mean I do…but I like to put my own twist to it and also I love to create my own dishes from scratch!
