Well, she sure wears a mask ;-)

Glad Don lives in such a colorful  environment, and shares it with us.

My fav is the reproduction of the poster for this unforgetable Italian film.

Second comes the colour chart - must be because I?m an occasional 
photographer and too rarely a painter.

And Jelo comes next, probably because I had long tried Jelly in the UK, and 
was surprised when I discovered it was called Jel(l)o in the US. 

Keep them coming Don

Amities
