WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY CARD, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR NELLY!

HARTELIJK GEFELICITEERD MET JE VERJAARDAG, lieve Nelly! Ik wens je een hele fijne dag toe en een jaar van gezondheid, met geluk en veel creativiteit! --Verjaarszoen van OLGA

Artist Reply: "WARM CONGRATULATED WITH YOUR ANNIVERSARY, nice Nelly! I wish you a whole delicate day and a year of health, with and much creativity! --Verjaarszoen of OLGA" - This one is the translation into English made by Babylon :-) I'm learning a lot of languages lately:-))) By the way, in Galician language, the one of this region, you're OLGUIÑA and Nelly, NELIÑA :-) The suffix -IÑA really determines LOVE and APPRECIATION although the lliteral meaning is a diminutive like "Little Olga" or "Little Nelly". Thank you for your comment, my friend. Love and light.

Hiromi Green 27 Mar 2008

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAREST BEAUTIFUL NELLY! You are most wonderful artist of Cats and woman in the world! I wish your endless Happy, Nelly! Dear Armando, you did fantastic work to our Nelly! Thank you!

Artist Reply: Right now I don't remember who is HORSE and who is RAT :-) It's funny, I mean about the RAT, because we both have kitties. Who knows if one of us will be the next lunch? :-) Have a wonderful day, dear Hiromi. Is Siesta Man still singing?:-)

Carliss Mora 27 Mar 2008

Alberto D'Assumpcao 27 Mar 2008

Wow! Perfect, Armando!!!

Artist Reply: Hi, Alberto. Because of difficult times lately, I didn't reply one of your comments. Do you know?: "Porta Nova", the art gallery, is near my home at Ferrol. Really, I can be there in three minutes by walking:-) Do you plan to come to Ferrol on May or you'll only send your artwork? Abraços, meu amigo!.
Artist Reply: I read your e-mail, Alberto. If you'll come here, "fritada" is guaranteed:-))) If you cannot come here, I'll take photos of the exhibition for you. Muitos abraços, meu amigo.

The Anonymous is me, dad. Happy Birthday to the beautiful lady!- Armando Jr.

Artist Reply: Thank you, Arman. Llueve en Santiago? Aquí ha estado diluviando toda la noche y lo que va de mañana. Cúidate, chaval!

Nelly van Nieuwenhuijzen 27 Mar 2008

wow, thank you Armando!!! love it!! I'm the person who is feeling herself honored!!! Spoiled me here in Artwanted! Spoiled by the most special artists!!! Thanks and Cheers!!!

Artist Reply: Happy birthday again, dear Nelly. I'm abstemious, really; only one Dutch beer per day as part of my diet. But today I'll open one bottle of red wine to honor you. "Vino de Barrantes" (=Barrantes' wine) is an intensely red wine, that kind of wine that DYES the glass :-) Have a wonderful day, have a wonderful life!
