    Hi, Ally, as always your art is intriguing. and that is what attracts me, Example, one does not read the alphabet, read a book written with those letters, I mean, with similar elements a person can do something in which the observer sees everything without mysteries, and another person can do something like you. atractive, intriguing, etc.. etc. etc.
    have a nice weekend!!!
