*You know my friend, I got a gift: a new year filled with hope, with no fears... I'm growing, I'm ageing, and so are you: and I'm so warm, while speaking with you. I think I read someday that joy has butterfly shape: she comes and then she goes, like a prcious rainbow that we can't blow, like those sweet songs we all should know... Joy's a feeling we connect with, at times we see she might remain in... I'm a searcher, and I'm a dreamer; I'm a runner, and I'm a winner: joy's around, she flies over life we cannot stop her, so let's get her ride. Joy's around, she sparkles near and she'll surprise you with all her gear. This year soon starts, I'm up, my friend to take the best out from new quests. With love, with days you just can play the cleanest, the purest of all known games. Joy's around, her wings just spread: so dear, let's go, let's follow her. I wish you now to be with her with lovely joy during this year. No matter where, no matter distances, you know I feel ya through all my events. I might seem far, but ain't really: our friendly sharings are joy's true principle.* --------------------------- Drawing from a blank scratch, executed with mouse and Photoshop 7.Made in 3 days, real size A4. -------------------------------------- Hi everyone :) I missed this place and the beauty of art, but as some of you know, life of mine keeps being just too busy for allowing me pleasure of internet surfing. I haven't painted almost for this entire 2005, but I was up to make a drawed calendar for friends (I will send you a copy in time for Xmas, my list is ready :)) and to wish all beautiful and tender people here a joyous Xmas time and a new year filled with joy. My working tasks are gonna more makeable starting from end of January so I am confident I'll hang more around here after then :) Okay, no more words... just share my hug, and know you are dear to my heart. A kiss for friends, and happy time everybody :) Have a most splendid december and Holy time, and rock on in 2006 :) I know it's early time for that, but I might not be able to be around here in holiday times so...better sooner than ever ;) Hugs and kisses, Meli xxxxxx :)
