Lace, pearls and roses.

Can't remember if I've posted this one. If I did, just look at it again and continue on....

Wow! With those folds and shadows, perspective, etc, it must be easier to make the lace than paint it! Astonishing sno.

Your work never ceases to amaze me....

 

[Artyczar]

Wow! The light and shadow in that lace is outstanding. You really made it extra special with the dark contrast with this. Very painstaking, I can see. It's perfection. I've not seen it before. Amazing!!!

Thank you Iain, for a very flattering comment.

Thanks so much Arty, ya'all are just good for a girl's (old lady's) ego.

 

[Trier]

Wonderful, sno !
It has a quiet yet vibrant beauty about it.

 

[snoball]

Thank you Trier.

I don't see any old (ladys) people here.

You're just not looking close enough.

 

[Artyczar]

You mean in the mirror?

 

[snoball]

Now you know which old lady I was talking about.

The consolation with age (I just hit the half century) you can't die young, You have accrued experiences, the years, and those cannot be taken from you. They can still take your life of course but let's not quibble over mere technicalities.

 

[snoball]

Yep, I'm way too old to die young!

 

[joe1It]

it's a wonderful work of art, thank you very much for posting it, really, admire such beautiful works, makes a day so much more beautiful, thank you

 

[snoball]

Thank you Joe, that's kind of you to say.

Don't look like that, sno! I was trying to make us feel better by putting a positive slant on it. Back to the drawing board.

I've been getting grey this year, which is a little weird to go through. My dad never got grey and I think I take after him because it's not very much, but maybe it's too soon to tell. My mother got fully grey by the time she was my age. She died her hair, but when her roots came in, it was all silver. I remember thinking she was too young for that, but they say stress will do that. She was still in her late 40s. I just recently died part of my hair (the front) purple, and it already growing out into a pinkish color.

I don't know why I am yammering on about hair. I blame sno's emoji.

Well I see I'm going to have to send you a dictionary.

Arty, I started graying at 18, dyed it for a while and then went to frosting and finally just let it go. It is completely white now.

I like white/grey hair actually. I think it makes people look smarter.
