Hello to artists & art lovers.
Just wanted to share my joy for having a new piece of mine ("The Sailor & the Mermaid II" [link])  chosen as the DD.

It is an honor obviously and it kinda makes my day. We artists, we struggle in the dark, don't we? We have this ideas and these visions that sort of visit us, torment us, urging us to soldier on as it were, but we do it all alone. Today it feels like I'm not alone. I thank you for this:-)

I'm sharing here both images that are part of this story:

     



I also want to thank [link] suggesting it  and  for [link] for featuring it. That was very kind of you guys!!

Blessings to all,
Fanitsa

Did you notice that when we open our eyes in the morning and look into this world ... all we see is ourselves?

We look ... but we do not see
We listen ... but we do not hear
