This picture I stumbled on just struck me.
It reminded me of my Avo "Vo" Portuguese for Grandmother
The picture is:
"Babooshka" by
Yulia Brodskaya
Yulia is an artist who works with paper,
creating stunning paper illustations, the image above is quilled.
Still thinking of the picture I looked up "Babooshka" and found nothing but I did find babushka, hmm.
Definitions of babushka on the Web:
•a woman's headscarf folded into a triangle and tied under the chin; worn by Russian peasant women

•a usually triangularly folded kerchief for the head (scarves)
