Though dreams can be deceiving, like faces are to hearts,
they serve for sweet relieving, when fantasy and reality lie too far apart. Fiona Apple

and takes a grain of salt with everything he says to her. Helen Rowland
Mmmmm…. Tasty!!
Wow, I like this! and the quotes, too.
Another gorgeous piece; do you do B&B!?
Amazing skill. i wonder how it looks like in real. Reproduced, it looks like enamels. But quilted means on fabrics doesn’t it?
I especially like “detach” and “homage”.
Your work continues to get better and better. Just breathtakingly beautiful. A feast for the eyes.
Oh wow!!! this is amazing and so beautiful….I would love to wake up with this tray of treats…
Wonderful work!!!
