Nostalgia


Maybe it's the antique tones I did with the shading here but Nostalgia / Nostalgic really comes to mind when I see this girl.

    She is so pretty and looks like she is looking at something in the past that none of us can see. Nostalgia is the perfect word for it... Love those colors!! Hugs, Silke
