Dear Lida Sherafatmand! Leo sent me this E-mail, and i had the pleasure to see your beautiful painting. I have one new idea about our possible cooperation like a "tandem" (your wonderful painting and poetry (yours + mine in English/Russian and maybe some other language). I saw your nudes, it might be for example your nudes + my "Body of woman" in English and Russian. I may translate into Russian some of your poems if necessary for such kind of project. Usually combination painting + poetry has much deeper effect! Anyhow i would like to know your opinion on this subject. If you like this idea we may discuss it with Leo. Hoping to hear from you soon, I remain, Friendly yours, Adolf Shvedchikov, Los Angeles, California, USA Vice President, GHA-Russia, Scientist, Chemical Physics, PhD and LittD, Poet and Translator, A Member of Many International Literary Associations, Author of 13 books of poetry and poetic translations, including Shakespeare.
