Shattered

I am absolutely knackered.

It's been a day. Not a bad day, just lots of it. Heavily pregnant, soon to leave boss and soon to be new boss took the branch out for lunch so we scoffed pizza like it was going out of style.

Nice, and also free.

Beyond the extended lunch hour, been busy. And then I spent a couple of additional hours in the office completing Wolfram for NWO. I got back home about 10 minutes ago, just after 8.10pm.

The rest of the evening I am going to squander. I can't concentrate any more today. I should find something mindless to occupy my time for a few hours afore bed.

Bleh.

Only remaining piccy until I find my archive...

I hadn't realised that I'd dumped or given away so much of my stuff...

Well, this is the last until I track down more pages....

This is another Louise Brooks, but charcoal and chalk on white paper. This version has been tinkered with in Paintshop Pro since the paper has yellowed to the point that the chalk no longer blends, and shows up quite separately, instead as part of the picture (you'd have to see the original to understand the true horror).




I have dropped the picture back into monochrome and digitally softened the closer cheek to get round the problems with the now very yellow paper. Picture appears about 33% original size and is all the better for it.
