Bio

Sfumato (from the Italian sfumare, “to tone down,” or “to evaporate like smoke”) means that there are no harsh outlines present; areas blend into one another through miniscule brushstrokes, which makes for a rather hazy, albeit more realistic, depiction of light and color.

You see, it's a metaphor for my life.
