* In this blog I mainly try to show you unusual things and forms of art, but I thought you might like a touch of the pretty art. I am not connected in any way to to MMAcademy or Nikita Ale, and have not and will never monetize this blog.

Jacki, I always appreciate the variety of your blog. You find so many interesting themes.
Maybe I'm a bit childish because I love so many of your smiles? But they often hold a wise message us and that's so wonderful.
Wishing you a wonderful Friday.
