[August 23 – September 22]
Today is the first day of Virgo, the sixth sign of the Zodiac.
Virgo is a mutable earth sign ruled by Mercury.
Resourceful and very reliable they are committed to problem-solving with great attention to detail. Sounds like the perfect resume right? 😉
Starting from the last [12th] sign, I’ll be posting these original illustrations, Anakreon Kanavakis created for a calendar. [check it out here]
Happy Wednesday!
Happy birthdays to all Virgos out there

❤️🤗💕So much talent I’m always amazed by the creativity.
lately you’ve fallen off my notifications dear Marina.
I’ve missed you. I’m going to refollow as sometimes this happens with WP.sending many hugs and absolutely love this !Give my regards!
Just touching base with you Marina, as I haven’t been as active in visiting lately… And have missed your reposts to Oannes.. So hope all is well, and that you are just so busy with your new home…
Looking at the date of this post last year… How quickly time is travelling… Know you are in my thoughts…. And wishing you well Marina… xxx
Sending lots of love your way my friend… Love Sue xx ❤
How harmonious.
Thank you, Steve! My father will be happy to hear! 🙏
This is very nice. I look at something like this and think that it could be really famous… err the artist… if only some NYC art phonies made a lot of hype about it. Not very clear writing but you get the message! 😃
Oh, I get the message fine!
Well… life’s tough but you know, we do what we do because it pleases us first. Recognition is just a bonus. 😉
Thank you, my friend. I will forward your words to my dad! 🙏
I’m sorry, I can’t remember if your father is still here with us or in the next world. In any case, I’m sure he’ll be delighted to hear! Your relationship with him reminds me of how I feel about my mother (who’s still with us).😇🕊️👼
He’s here and active, though he’s chosen writing as a means of expression.
Nice.
I love this and I’m a virgo, so thank you so much. 🙂
Oh, that means a lot, coming from a Virgo! 😉
Happy Birthday! [wishes over here last for a month! ;-)] xo
Oh, that’s perfect. Thank you. 😊
xo 🌷
Aww, Virgo get a mermaid!
LOL…Love it!
I’m way behind blogging, dahling.
I’ve been brutally busy. Things are slowing down a bit, but it’s still fairly nutty.
Cheers to a gorgeous late summer, one of my fave times of year!
xoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoooo
Awwww……. dahling thank you so much!
I know you’ve been very busy, so this is even more appreciated!
Cheers to that, my friend and thank you for the reblog!!!!

Marina – you always bring joy to my day. Thank you.
Ah, likewise, my dearest friend!
Happy Sunday! xoxo
I love this! It is beautiful! 😍
Ah, thank you, dahling! xoxo
My pleasure dear Marina!xoxo
💗❤️❤️💗
❤️🤗
💗🌸💗
Ooh, a lovely mermaid!
Isn’t she?! Thank you, Liz! xoxo
You’re welcome, Marina!
😘😌😘
Beautiful colours! It’s what gets me every time! Her hair is fab,& those eyes 💓🤗🙋♂️
Thank you, my dear Ashley! I know those eyes, hair …and tail! 😉
I will forward your kind words, my friend! 🙏😌🌷
what a beauty, Marina – no doubt that perfectionism has something to do with those looks – not a hair out of place. She looks suitably lovely on a beach towel – but your art deserves a place on the wall most of all
A ha ha ha, indeed! Dad is married to one. He didn’t have to look far to find his model 😉 🤣
So glad you like it, Laura. I will forward your lovely words! xoxo
looking ahead to ? Capricorn, he’s a perfect match for Virgo
He’s a Cancer! 😉
ah but Capricorn has the matching swishy tail 😉
😂😉😘
These are wonderful, what a clever series of creativity! Happy Birthdays to Leo’s everywhere!
Thank you, my dear Babsje! So glad you’re enjoying these! xoxoxoxoxo
You’re welcome, Marina! I feel silly asking this, but IIRC you have a separate blog for the design work that you and your team does, but I have lost the link. When you have a moment, can you please let me know the blog’s name and link? Thanks in advance! xoxoxox
Oh, not at all silly!!! Thank you for asking! It’s https://anmarcreative.com/ or for the calendar post, you can click where I say [check it out here] in this post. xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Thank you very much for the blog name, Marina. I found it! 🙏
Thank you, my dear friend! xoxoxoxo
Beautiful, Marina! Love the colors! Can’t believe it’s August and school starts this week. Back to more traffic. LOL I checked out the calendar too and commented over there. Sending hugs and love, dear friend! xoxoxo
I know right?!!!! Traffic’s almost back to business here too!
Yes, I saw it and thank you so much for your kind words!
Many more hugs to you and love!
💗🌸💗
❤️🩷🧡💛

Beautiful Virgo.
Isn’t she?! 😉 Thank you, Tim!
Wonderful work …. but I’m not sure how many Virgos I know. Yamas!
You’ll know by their meticulous attention to detail! 😉
Thank you, my friend!
Yamas!
Or, as I like to call them, DamnVirgos 😉 I am surrounded by them! My two sisters are, my father was, an ex-boyfriend, two ex-bosses (both of whom fired me!) and lots of family and friends. They are everywhere (that’s what happens when people fool around during Christmas)
That said, they can be lovely people…
And your artwork is just gorgeous!
Don’t I know! Just one: mom! All too familiar! 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so much, sweet Dale! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Hahahaha!!
Always, my friend xoxoxoxo
🤣
Mouwah! 😘❤️😘❤️😘
Lots of goodies! ❤
Ah, thank you! xoxoxo
