Mighty Web-fu masters, hear my call: desperately seeking Minerva

15:14 / 07.03.02

Also, for a great variety, check this shit out.
Especially the "ALGUMAS REPRESENTAÇÕES" page.

You know, with a little photoshopping, I bet you could turn any of these into a bistro-poster-style image.

Probably too much. I stop now.
