And there are quiet, almost invisible moments when we feel we've found ourselves between the lines \u2014 in a sentence, a thought, a feeling. <\/p>\n<p>And when we set the book down, a small but meaningful marker stays behind. A marker that holds not just a page, but a feeling. A fragment of something lived, of calm, of closeness. <\/p>\n<p>That is how these bookmarks came to be. From the wish to leave more than a placeholder between the pages \u2014 to leave a gentle trace of the heart. My illustrations, lovingly made in my warm, playful, personal style, carry simple emotions: longing, tenderness, joy, gratitude.  <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-9107 size-fusion-600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_0976-600x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\"><\/p>\n<p>They're meant for those moments when time seems to slow down, when you sit with a book in your hands and your heart fills with quiet. Or for the times when you miss someone and want to offer a small gesture that means a lot. <\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the tenderness in these drawings also comes from being a mother. I am Roua's mom \u2014 my little girl, who reminds me every day how precious small gestures, warm looks, and bonds that need no words truly are. <\/p>\n<p>Maybe that's exactly why I want my art to reach other hearts as well \u2014 to keep pages company, to bring smiles, to bring people closer.<\/p>\n<p>Because sometimes the most beautiful feelings live in the simplest things. And sometimes, they fit inside a bookmark. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11502,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[89],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11501","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized-en-us"],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/IMG_0976-scaled.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11501","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11501"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11501\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11545,"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11501\/revisions\/11545"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11502"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11501"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11501"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hristart.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11501"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
