art | in shades of marchesa

. . . and it seems, the rainy days to come will slowly wash spring days away, and although will miss the beauty of the first blossoms and rays of sun terribly, after the rain it will soon be summertime -- a season filled with joy and celebrations, bare legs and billowing dresses -- and already cannot wait, but for now time is filled watercoloring to the heart's content -- but of course in shades of marchesa dresses, perfect for summer soirées . . . *
