Vlad, From a fellow northerner in Calgary Canada, I hope the results of your incredible creativity lift your spirits. The results being not only the artwork, but the outpouring of affection. I wish you could see the delight on my own, but especially my children's faces when they see your artwork on my computer desktop. My son, a train fanatic asked to see your Christmas Train piece every day through the holidays on my iPhone and of the course "the real" picture on my desktop. Take care of yourself - take good long walks in that "fresh" Siberian air, and know our thoughts are with you when we look upon your work.

I've been follow your work and love everyone of what you kindly share with us this one in particular even though you made it while you were feeling down represent for me what Dominicans live every day....to many blackouts for a lifetime he he he....anyway either you're happy or down you are a great artist, keep the good work.
