Vidja's Galleries
Hi, and thanks for surfing in!   ^___^

My name is actually Silvia (Vidja's just my old nick) and I live in Italy - which means that you really should be merciful if my English sounds a bit funny!
I love to create stuff in my spare time, and though I'm by no means an artist, I deeply enjoy the process of making something that was not there before, and that reflects a small particle of beauty - well, admittedly there's an economical motivation too, since I sell my stuff on eBay (my ID on there is Silora, by the way... just in case!)

You'll find painted rocks and feathers here, and miniatures, and temari; maybe in the future I'll add some cross-stitch and patchwork galleries, too.
Oh, and I have a "pigs" folder, of course - I just love pigs (plush pigs, glass pigs, painted pigs, real pigs... whatever!)

The photos are mine, unless another photographer's quoted in the gallery's description or in the texts - some friends of mine were kind enough to take pics of my works before I got my digital camera.

Now before you go on and look at the pictures, allow me to ask you a favour - DROP ME A NOTE IN MY GUESTBOOK!
Nothing is so depressing as a blank guestbook, so, please, don't be shy and sign my guestbooks! You may want to tell me whether you like my pictures or not, or give me suggestions, or simply say goodbye... I promise that I won't spam you, nor try to sell you stuff.

OK, it's over. Surf at your pleasure, and see you soon!

1. Paintings  (August 24, 2003)
You don't need to be a full-fledged artist in order to enjoy painting! Myself, I graduated in Modern Languages and never took an art lesson in my whole life, but I love to mess around with acrylics... it's relaxing, and rewarding, too, since every completed project is a huge satisfaction for me, however small the accomplishment!

I mainly paint on rocks and feathers, because they're cheaper than canvas, and not so intimidating... and besides, they have a natural texture and colour I can use to enrich my work.
I will probably try painting on other surfaces in the future, as my technique gets better...

Piggy stuff
2. Piggy stuff  (June 7, 2003)
I couldn't help but uploading some of my favourite swine pics, because... I LOVE PIGS!

They're the cutest animals in the world; I collect both photos and gadgets provided they're pig-related.

If you like pigs, too, this is your place...
