Speaking of butterflies, one night, a Chinese sage had a dream in which he was a butterfly fluttering over meadows and gardens. When he woke up, he sat at the edge of his bed and thought, "Am I a human who just dreamed he was a butterfly or am I a butterfly who is now dreaming he's a human? " good question. I'm reminded of a statement by Edgar Alan Poe : "ALL THAT WE ARE OR SEEM TO BE IS A DREAM WITHIN A DREAM."

I highly admire the way in which you depict facial expressions, be it "Sun-kissed Innocence" or "Wedding Belle." You make the world a better place through the beauty and profundity of your art.

Such a lovely image of innocence and joy! l/f
