Interests
  First of all I am interested in visual arts.I've discovered this passion for visual arts such as drawing and painting by the year 2000, when I was 13-14.I've always been fascinated by the beauty and the mysteries of the universe.The universe with it's wonderful galaxies,supernovas, nebulas, stars planets and other objects inspires me.My other great interest is astronomy. I am inspired by the Greek mythology too.I have a zodiac inspired from the Greek mythology,,paintings of characters like Andromeda, Afrodita giving life to Galatea and Kore(the maiden aspect of the goddess Persephone) and paintings of the ancient poets Corinna from Tanagra, Erinna and Sappho. I am interested in paranormal phenomena such as pyramid effect, ghosts, time travel, UFOs and alien life too. I really thing there was life on Mars in the Past, the Cydonia pyramid and face on mars are one of the traces of the lost civilization on Mars.
 I love nature and I am interested in biology too ________________________________________________________ Imi place foarte mult sa desenez si sa pictez.Pentru mine desenul si pictura sunt o modalitate de a evada di realitatea cenusie.Iubesc natura si tot ce e frumos si printre preocuparile mele se afla si biologia.Cred ca a existat viata pe Marte candva.Sunt convinsa ca noi nu suntem singura forma de viata inteligenta din acest univers si ca pe alte planete pot fi si civilizatii mai dezvoltaet decat a noastra |

Dj tiesto feat Kirsty Hawkshaw-Just be How right this song can be.You can't run away from the person you are in your heart trying to be what you are not.Be yourself no matter what the others may say.Accept yourself the way you are.Listen to your heart and try to know and love yourself JUST BE You can travel the world
But you can't run away
From the person you are in your heart
You can be who you want to be
Make us believe in you
Keep all your light in the dark
You're searching for truth
You must look in the mirror
And make sense of what you can see
Just be
Just be
They say learning to love yourself
Is the first step
But you take what you want to be real
Flying on plains exotic locations
Won't teach you
How you how to feel
Beside the fact
That you are who you are
And nothing can change that believe
Just be
Just be
Cause now I know
Is not so far
To were I go
There's not this spot
Since this I feel
I need
To just be
Just be
I was lost
And I'm still lost
But I feel so much better
Cause now I know
Is not so far
To were I go
There's not this spot
Since this I feel
I need
To just be
Just be

Poetry Mihai eminescu  Din valurile vremii, iubita mes rasai Cu bratele de marmur,cu parul lung, balai- Si fata stravazie ca fata albei ceri Slabita de umbra duioaselor dureri! Cu zambetul tau dulce tu mangai ochii mei Femeie inter stele si stea intre femei Si intorcandu-ti fata spre umarul tau stang In ochii fericirii ma uit pierdut si plang. Cum oare din noianul de neguri sa te rump Sa te ridic la pieptu-mi, iubite inger scump, Si fata mea in lacrimi pe fata ta s-o plec, Cu sarutari aprinse suflarea sa ti-o-nec Si mana friguroasa s-o incalzesc la san, Aproape mai aproape pe imima-mi s-o tin. Dar vai,un chip aievea nu esti, astfel de treci Si umbra ta se pierde in negurile reci De ma gasesc iar singur cu bratele in jos In trista amintire a visului frumos... Zadarnic dupa umbra ta dulce le intind: Din valurile vremii nu pot sa te cuprind I've made this watercolor painting inspired by this poem by Mihai Eminescu.This poem was the text on my literature written subject of the bacalaureat exam in 2005.When I was in the exam and I read the poem my mind created this image, a fatasmatic image of the poet's lover in the "Waves of time", something that was real in the past and now is just a ghost generated by the poet's memory.This poem moved me.I made many drawings and paintings(mi first in 2000) inspired by this poem but this is the newest and the most beautiful and apropiate to the image the poem generated in my mind.
___________________________________________________ Ancient poetry  Corinna(korinna) from Tanagra Again Terpsichore calls me,
That I the Mrs. von Tanagra
High songs of heroes sing;
And of hearts the city is pleased
Over my bright, cheerful song.

Legends, originating from father time,
To decorate with owner art
I raise now for the girls.
I often already sang to the Kephisos
Song around song [...]
Often also the large Orion and
His fifty sons at the price,
Which it possessed, after it itself
With the Nymphen unites…
 Sappho I have had not one word from her Frankly I wish I were dead. When she left, she wept a great deal; she said to me, "This parting must be endured, Sappho. I go unwillingly." I said, "Go, and be happy but remember (you know well) whom you leave shackled by love "If you forget me, think of our gifts to Aphrodite and all the loveliness that we shared "all the violet tiaras, braided rosebuds, dill and crocus twined around your young neck "myrrh poured on your head and on soft mats girls with all that they most wished for beside them "while no voices chanted choruses without ours, no woodlot bloomed in spring without song..." Ovidius

  YGMALION loathing their lascivious Life, Abhorred all Womankind, but most a Wife: So single chose to live, and shunned to wed, Well pleased to want a Consort of his Bed. Yet fearing Idleness, the Nurse of Ill, In Sculpture exercised his happy Skill; And carved in Ivory such a Maid, so fair, As Nature could not with his Art compare, Were she to work; but in her own Defence, Must take her Pattern here, and copy hence. Pleased with his Idol, he commends, admires, Adores; and last, the Thing adored, desires. A very Virgin in her Face was seen, And she had moved, a living Maid had been: One would have thought she could have stirred; but strove With Modesty, and was ashamed to move. Art hid with Art, so well performed the Cheat, It caught the Carver with his own Deceit: He knows 'tis Madness, yet he must adore, And still the more he knows it, loves the more: The Flesh, or what so seems, he touches oft, Which feels so smooth, that he believes it soft. Fired with his Thought, at once he strained the Breast, And on the Lips a burning Kiss impressed. 'Tis true, the hardened Breast resists the Gripe, And the cold Lips return a Kiss unripe: But when, retiring back, he looked again, To think it Ivory, was a thought too mean: So would believe she kissed, and courting more, Again embraced her naked Body o'er; And straining hard the Statue, was afraid His Hands had made a Dint, and hurt his Maid: Explored her, Limb by Limb, and feared to find So rude a Gripe had left a livid Mark behind With Flatt'ry now he seeks her Mind to move, And now with Gifts (the powerful bribe of Love): He furnishes her Closet first; and fills The crowded Shelves with Rarities of Shells; Adds Orient Pearls, which from the Conches he drew, And all the sparkling Stones of various Hue: And Parrots, imitating Human Tongue, And singing-birds in Silver Cages hung; And ev'ry fragrant Flower, and odorous Green, Were sorted well, with Lumps of Amber laid between: Rich, fashionable Robes her person Deck: Pendants her Ears, and Pearls adorn her neck: Her tapered Fingers too With Rings are graced, And an embroidered Zone surrounds her slender Waist. Thus like a Queen arrayed, so richly dressed, Beauteous she shewed, but naked shewed the best. Then, from the Floor, he raised a Royal Bed, With Cov'rings of Sydonian Purple spread: The Solemn Rites performed, he calls her Bride, With Blandishments invites her to his Side, And as she were with Vital Sense possessed, Her Head did on a plumy Pillow rest. The Feast of Venus came, a Solemn Day, To which the Cypriots due Devotion pay; With gilded Horns the milk-white Heifers led, Slaughtered before the sacred Altars, bled: Pygmalion offering, first approached the Shrine, And then with Pray'rs implored the Powers Divine: Almighty Gods, if all we Mortals want, If all we can require, be yours to grant; Make this fair Statue mine, he would have said, But changed his Words for shame; and only prayed, Give me the likeness of my Ivory Maid. The Golden Goddess, present at the Prayer, Well knew he meant th' inanimated Fair, And gave the Sign of granting his Desire; For thrice in cheerful Flames ascends the Fire. The Youth, returning to his Mistress, hies, And, impudent in Hope, with ardent Eyes, And beating Breast, by the dear Statue lies. He kisses her white Lips, renews the Bliss, And looks and thinks they redden at the Kiss: He thought them warm before: Nor longer stays, But next his Hand on her hard Bosom lays: Hard as it was, beginning to relent, It seemed, the Breast beneath his Fingers bent; He felt again, his Fingers made a Print, 'Twas Flesh, but Flesh so firm, it rose against the Dint: The pleasing Task he fails not to renew; Soft, and more soft at every Touch it grew; Like pliant Wax, when chafing Hands reduce The former Mass to Form, and frame for Use He would believe, but yet is still in pain, And tries his Argument of Sense again, Presses the Pulse, and feels the leaping Vein. Convinced, o'erjoyed, his studied Thanks and Praise, To her who made the Miracle, he pays: Then Lips to Lips he joined; now freed from Fear, He found the Savour of the Kiss sincere: At this the wakened image oped her Eyes, And viewed at once the Light and Lover, with surprise. The Goddess present at the Match she made, So blessed the Bed, such Fruitfulness conveyed, That e'er ten Moons had sharpened either Horn, To crown their Bliss, a lovely Boy was born; Paphos his Name, who, grown to manhood, walled The City Paphos, from the Founder called.

Leoaica tânără, iubireaLeoaica tinara, iubirea mi-ai sarit în fata. Mă pindise-n incordare mai demult. Coltii albi mi i-a infipt în fata, m-a muscat leoaica, azi, de fata. Si deodata-n jurul meu, natura
se facu un cerc, de-a-dura,
când mai larg, când mai aproape,
ca o stringere de ape.
Si privirea-n sus tisni,
curcubeu taiat în doua,
si auzul o-ntilni
tocmai lângă ciorcarlii. Mi-am dus mâna la sprinceana,
la timpla si la barbie,
dar mâna nu le mai stie.
Si aluneca-n nestire
pe-un desert în stralucire,
peste care trece-alene
o leoaica aramie
cu miscarile viclene,
inca-o vreme,
si-nca-o vreme...
