The funny thing about humans is that they usually accept what is as the only is there is---or, at least their perception of it which is, by all accounts, only partial and/or skewed. And they think, accept, maybe even hope that their existence will continue at an acceptable even favorable level. This past year should have brought home the fact that this assumption is much closer to a delusion than we'd like to admit. Maybe this is why we have a tendency to over-react when the delicate balance of our existence is tipped. This is a 6 by 4.5 inches gel pen drawing with color pencil. Yes, it's a little bit more of that Original Jones Art as he notes his own tenuous reality in northwest Austin, Texas.

Now I've put myself between a Rock and a hard placed Egg,...ha, ha, ha, my friend! Your elaborations on your art pieces are quite elaborate, and your sense of humor timely! In this case, your egg covers my perceived rock! You win again! I appreciate your checking in on me,...my health issues have been really tough recently. My strength & memories have been decreasing lately,...so I don't get much done with helping my wife and I feel like I am in a downward spiral. Hope your health and heart are doing well and that you're feeling better my good friend!!!???:)))Al Budarin 02 Apr 2021
