cras amet qui nunquam amavit; 
quique amavit, cras amet 

"May he love tomorrow who has never loved before;

And may he who has loved, love tomorrow as well"

A Latin proverb that I thought ideally, should have been published on the 13th of February, but dates don't really matter that much, now, do they?

If you're feeling like you're being taken for granted by someone you love,
Don't get angry.
Look at it this way...
Deep down, they don't think you'll ever leave.

Inspiration: Family dramas on TV.

Lucky Buddy

It is believed that Crickets bring luck. Especially if found within anyone's dwellings.

My new little buddy isn't a Cricket, but it stayed around vertically clinging to a step in our staircase, and was a wonderful model, no fusses at all!
It curiously looked around, and struck some pretty neat poses for the camera (I took a lot more than just two photos, but didn't want to scare it away by getting too close). It stayed for a long while even after I left it alone, which was not before I stared at it for a long time, and made some loud exclamations of fascination and joy every now and then. I think it quite liked the attention, to be honest!

Although I've got to admit, at first from a distance I did think it could be my 'Lucky Cricket', I figured out it wasn't even from the same family of insects. But then I'm never going to say it isn't lucky.
Because:
Who wouldn't want to be showered with affection as someone's lucky charm?
(especially when you're such a charming guest, friendly and fascinating)

'Destroying Angel'

This is my take on the "destroying Angel" mushroom, identified as Amanita virosa by the scientific community.
Although it is essential entirely white, I added a little colour for fun!
=)

Inspiration: Curiosity about it's 'common name'. A small bite is 'quite' deadly, if not 'very'.

Medium: Oil Pastel and pencil on paper.
