A beautiful hyper-realistic painting by artist Omar Ortiz. Such an incredible use of paint to create depth of focus and the reflection of light on skin.

Via GeminiOnly trust someone who can see these three things in you: The sorrow behind your smile, the love behind your anger, and the reason behind your silence.
– (via daphneemarie) Via GeminiIntroverts, in contrast, may have strong social skills and enjoy parties and business meetings, but after a while wish they were home in their pajamas. They prefer to devote their social energies to close friends, colleagues, and family. They listen more than they talk, think before they speak, and often feel as if they express themselves better in writing than in conversation. They tend to dislike conflict. Many have a horror of small talk, but enjoy deep discussions.
