“My Heart is a full blown DaVinci art and more in green moss, spring soft !”

|
"If I am disgusted for being a lazy in solid works, I am be loved for being a hardworker in soft works. The solid works can be benefited by very few people within some countable moments, while the works of pen and brush (soft works) can be benefited by all and the coming generations. So every da Vinci has his own brush to paint his own Lisa."
