Aging gracefully - a polite way of saying
looking worse slowly - en route to dying.

Maybe but not yet Michael, not yet.

You've done it again with your artwork, I can see so much in it once more.
Thanks Andy - a four petalled flower?
Good write and pic M.
You on the way out?! Not for along time, I hope. How old is Miss Berles now?
Actually yes - about to leave for my daughters for distance coffee.
Miss Berles is defying the reaper despite being told she is now designated as coffin fodder.
What's that phrase? Something like 'coffin botherers', or maybe 'fodder' as you say?
At a church, one said 'Are you communicating?' I said 'Why yes, I'm speaking and listening'. They meant 'Are you going to take the bread and wine of Holy Communion today?'. Doh!
How will you drink the coffee - with a long straw from a distance? All these questions. lol.
Two lines which encapsulate my appearance.
You pic today has an uncanny likeness to a close up of the threadbare sofa we threw out 20 odd years ago.(just kidding).
You should have kept it - the Tate would be only too happy to exhibit it.
thanks Dusk.
BRIAN ICI ~ Good Afternoon Uncle Mike ~ Loved the AB & the ODE. Angela & I - still being under 40 (remember that ?) - are *Keeping up Appearances* not with cosmetics but with healthy eating & exercise & sleep & not smoking ! In the AB I saw at least three (hidden) ageing faces ~ Centre ~ Upper right - Lower left and a very distinct White & Yellow Cat (not Smokey) bottom right. Thanks for scaring !
Blessing & Peace to You & Yours
Love Brian & Angela & Smokey !
Thanks Brian - that's the beauty of abstract work - it's up to the viewer to interpret which is why I rarely give an abstract a meaningful title.
