Louise lives in California. She is a passionate woman.
She writes on her facebook page “Similar to the Solar Eclipse I make an appearence in the kitchen every 370 years. Also like the Eclipse it is only for 7 minutes.”
Louise loves my Art and She supports me.
Here the guardian angel made by me for Louise (She has sent to me this cute pic!)
She is fragile like a crystal and bright like a ray of sun.
She isn’t only a customer, She is like a sister.
Today I inaugurate a new section: people that I love, people who love my Art, passionate fans around the world that make my day, thank you Louise!
You are so intense, you are a beautiful, passionate woman, I love your face,and your firm support every day!

This morning I opened the window and the frost has bloked my breath.
In front on me the mountains with snow, but for the first time I breathed a new fragrance in the air: a delicate aroma of flowers (freesias, narcissuses, jasmin).
I was excited and I closed my eyes with a new sensation in my body…
Spring is near the corner, with all the power of colors and flowers!
Welcome March!

What a freezing day!
Snow everywhere and cold wind, Italy is under the ice.
People is at home, like me.
But you know, for me, paper and watercolours is the best, with cold, sun or wind, summer or winter.
When I suffer the cold I concentrate on a contrary idea, I think on hot, terrible hot.
Of course when I suffer the hot, I imagine frozen situations…
We have Blizzard today from Siberia…brrrrr… my first image is a famous movie with Marylin Monroe, The Seven Year Itch.
Wikipedia says “Monroe standing on a subway grate as her … dress is blown above her knees by a passing train“.
Ahhh this is the image that I want today!
The fresh from grates, because it is so hot!
…bye bye Blizzard…

On wich paper sheets do you draw your paperdolls?
I draw on Fabriano 200 g/m2 light cardboard.
It’s an italian paper very smooth, white, on which run over very well the black pen ( I love SO MUCH Faber-castell ECCO Pigment permanent, diameter 0,1 or 0,2)…about the pen, I want a thin stroke because I like crossed strokes to create black shadows.
What is the size of your paper sheet?
For me A4 (Letter form) even if I will cut into more parts the paperdoll and so the paperdoll will be larger than the initial size.
Do you laminate your paperdoll?
Sometime I use to laminate my paperdolls, if I want to preserve very well a OOAK creation.
To laminate a 200 g/m2 paper sheet is more simple than to do it with a heavier sheet (300 g and over), especially if you apply decorations which you will include them into the lamination.
The holes where you insert the brads: How do you create them? the exact diameter of the brad? or smaller?
I prefer to make a smaller hole and I enlarge it with the brad so the articulation is less slack.
And…How do you…..ok ok next post! too much questions! -
It’s August in the Garden and Flox turns around the flowers in to the wind.
Her white dress smells of Jasmine flowers: the pink butterflies are attracted by the perfume and wish to suck this wonderful white flower, her dress.
In the pocket Flox has put a white rose that has just picked in the garden.
While Flox walks, two birds decide to accompany her walks and fly on her hands.
The birds tweet and tweet and tell their adventures (do you see the words on their wings?).
Fairy Flox has wonderful leaves on her legs and arms: myrtle? jasmine? we don’t know, we smell only wonderful perfumes….
Ahhhhh the wonder of summer gardens…the scented life of plants, the baroque singing of animals, the magical touch of Fairy Flox…
I am sure to live in a special place if Fairy Flox protects me!PS: today a windy and cloudy day, I have a little bit of flu and so I dream!
