Catharsis III – The Path
(catharsis = purification, renewal, reborn of the soul and spirit through art)
Today I’m in love !! :) – look at the date to see why
I hope you didn’t forget me. I’m very little present at the moment, but that doesn’t mean I don’t like being here and I don’t miss you all. It’s just that I’m super busy at the moment and dealing with lots of things that need/demand my attention. Hope it’s going to get better soon and that I’ll have more time to come visit you all.
This is another image in my Catharsis series. Still winter images and no architecture from me and that’s because I didn’t have the time to seriously work on architecture. Working now on a couple of images, nothing ready yet, but they are coming soon.
Enjoy with chocolate!
