    You make magic with shadows and shine; darks and lights, expression and colors. Beautiful, Sirkka! Wonderfully so.

    Beautiful art. I really like the skin tones and the way the light shines. The expression in her eyes is hard to explain but she seems to see you in a non-judgmental way. Maybe she's an old soul. Very thought provoking. I like your art a lot. I'm a first time visitor hopping through blogosphere via Seth Apter, always a glorious adventure!
