Mandaly,
ReplyDeleteYour painting above is totally captivating! Do you by chance,
sell copies of this painting? I would love to have a signed
copy on my wall. Mesi anpil.
Mèsi anpil Rachal.
DeleteLi bèl vrèman vre.
Men malerezman se yon sèl mwen te fè. Mwen poko fè yon kopi. Mwen va panse fè sa trè byento.
Lè mwen fè yon kop, mwen va voye li pou ou. Dakò?
Mandaly,
ReplyDeleteI hope all this is correct, but here goes:
M konprann egzakteman ki sa ou ap di. Ou penti yon anpil?
Si se pa, ou ta dwe. M pral tann tande pale de w. Jis
kite m konnen nan konvenyans ou. Bondye beni. Jan
