Seems the more of us there are, the less we tend to see one another. And when we bump into one another the less likely we are to say, "Excuse me." So here we are, 8 plus billion of us and counting and we might as well be falling rocks. This is a 9 by 4 inches gel pen with color pencil drawing on medium bond acid-free paper. Original Jones Art wonders what it'll be like when there's a few billion more of us milling about on planet earth---and, of course, northwest Austin, Texas.

The narrow framework speaks of certain limitations, of freedom for example. However, the more limited is thinking the more often it yields better and wider results. Why do they erroneously call it "narrow"? Nice zebra detail at that! Thanks for putting my kettle on fire, Charles!

Artist Reply: Well, focused thinking has been known to narrow things down a bit. I mean, one can't think expansively without losing a lot of minutiae. The image is sort of an in-your-face face, you might say, Nikolay. What seems narrow can be more than wide enough. Hope all is good at your place. :)

I like the expansive gnosis head without borders . Charles : ) And yes, basic manners go a long way Have a good weekend !

Artist Reply: "Manners' will one day mean merely NOT doing damage to another poor sot who was unlucky enough to make a faux pas like saying an innocent hello at a bus stop, Dave. There is safety in remaining strangers. Uh, sort of. :)
