Original watercolor artwork "Do not underestimate me" 2023 by Ala Ilescu Watercolor on 140 lb paper 11" x 15".Vertical position. Signed. This is the original painting from the art/ poetry book that I published in 2023 "My sad is sadder than yours" Here is the poem featured with this painting:

do not underestimate me
do not taunt my sensitivity
do not abuse my caring capacity
i have healed from your cruelty
i have set my inner child free
i am as fragile as I want to be
my fragility connects me to life's beauty
your ill-treatment was the making of me
i no longer care what you believe
it is I who holds the key.
