It had put me here in this unfamiliar body. Why an opera house, with an opera in progress? Why this skinny minx female-type body? I immediately disassembled the opera glasses, made some modifications, put them back together, and set to work. Figure out my mission, accomplish it, and move on...anything to return to my proper researches.

I don't understand my scanner. In muddied up the ruby tints in the curtain and dimmed the yellow glows. Oh well. Original is watercolor on Canson acid free 65-lb sketch paper, 6.5 x 3.25 " (of colored bits, plus more white around it). It's available, and we could do prints if you want. Email me!
