Rozalba
"Her name is Rozalba and she is the most beautiful fairy from the fascinating universe of Romanian folktales. Sometimes seen bathing in pure mountain springs or dancing in a frenetic vertigo in moonlit forest glades, while singing with her enchanting voice, Rozalba casts spells to those whose souls are pure and winged by passion. Her clothes are sewn with silver threads and beautifully adorned with traditional folk-motifs, the chemise she’s wearing being as light as thin air. Ribbons symbolizing life are braided in her long, auburn locks, veiling her delicate porcelain figure.
The Enchanted Rozalba comes from magic times, ruled by rituals and mysterious folkloric charms, embodying the traditional beauty of her culture and the distinctive features of a true East-European nymph." 2011 Illustration -

De-adevaratelea | Behind the scenes: Fairytale Heroes
"DE-ADEVARATELEA sau ce se intampla cand Fat-Frumos sta acasa" (ro)
"BEHIND THE SCENES : Fairytale Heroes" (en) = short encyclopedia of the charactes from the romanian folk fairytale, as no one has ever seen them before.
Extracted from their fantastic habitat, the caracters appear as superheroes with double-identity, fully engaged in the fairytale narrative, but also having a normal, real life. They keep their fairytale-like atributes, while having a common daily routine along everybody else, like a Clark Kent whose transformation takes place in front of all of us, without any problems at all.
Either they have grandchildren or nephews, lovers, brothers-in-law or as many pets as possible, either they are working in the night-shift or non-stop eating, the characters fit perfectly in our times, successfully combining the talents shown on the battlefield with the things that truly define them
as real-life individuals.
