Dear Marina
I was inspired and impressed with your work in Int Artist Mag. Wow...I need to get back to basics and develop my skills in conte. Your work is beautiful and I will try and follow it from now on, so I can keep getting inspired for my own work.
Love your children and babies especially since that's my 'niche' as well.
Regards,
Sophie
