Russia: Evgeny Tonkikh "Carnival" (oil on canvas) / "Пейзаж Новороссийской" (Novorossivsk Sea Port)

This week, I received four postcards from Russia, Hong Kong and Australia.
It’s been a great week receiving all these beautiful postcards in mail. 



When I first received this postcard, I felt like it was rather an artistic piece and I wasn't sure what it was trying to bring out. But it seemed to be bring different cultures and religions into one postcard. It says on the card that it is the Evgeny Tonkikh "Carnival" on canvas. Sender mentioned that she also enjoy learning new languages and it's a way of opening windows into a foreign culture.

This second postcard features a beautiful port in a nice sunny day. Sadly, the name of this place was only written in Russian and I was not able to understand or read it,,, It says "Пейзаж Новороссийской" and sender commented on it saying that is the Novorossivsk Sea Port. I could have never figured it out without her help :)

Sender also added a cute cat sticker on the card :) How cute !!!!
