Gingerbread man


Every year before Christmas I seeking in my notes a gingerbread man cookie recipe for a long time. This year I thought up to make a nice picture of gingerbread man for my kitchen. With the recipe of course.


And I give this nice picture of gingerbread man to you! I've uploaded the picture in large format, so you can save this picture yourself  and do with it a note card, decor for the kitchen and just use it in your cookbook. Download image easily and for free!
Right-click on the image "open link in new tab". In the opened window save the image to your PC. Then you can use the picture of your choice. It is a gift from Marina Vita.

Also you can find this watercolor painting  in my shop Marina Vita.

Lighthouse is a place of force and power!


One night I dreamed of a place where I would like to be. I dreamed of a place where I can step back from reality and be alone.

I saw the sea and the sky, large fields around. And as the center of attraction - the lighthouse!

In those nights I painted landscapes with lighthouses.

My place of freedom and peace.

Urban landscapes of Penang


Two months ago, I visited the city of George Town. It is a huge multi-million city on the island of Penang, Malaysia.
The city struck me with its diversity.  The skyscrapers, dilapidated houses of Chinatown, new luxury villas, colorful townhouses ordinary Malays - all of that jast stand near.
Painted his house in crimson, bright blue or lemon yellow is not a problem for these people! They like bright coloures!
