We've heard the expression, "He's His Own Worst Enemy" many times I'm sure. We've even known folks for whom that expression seemed to fit like a glove. BUT to some extent we all are our own worst adversaries. We tell ourselves we can't before we even try. We seem determined to depreciate ourselves at every time. We hold our tongues when we should speak and speak when we should remain silent. This is a 6 by 4 inches gel pen with gray Crayola on medium bond acid-free paper. i used that gel pen that was giving more medium than pigment again. Uh, it's pretty well used up by now. Hmm. I wonder if Original Jones Art could say the same about himself here in northwest Austin, Texas?

Very true, Charles , a reminder we shouldn't take life so seriously ... or back away from it either .... as the great Maude said, " otherwise , you'll have nothing to talk about in the locker room" : ) That fading gel pen is an inspiration .

Artist Reply: Be true to one's self and there are few regrets in the twilight years, maybe? I only get one of those gel pens with more medium than ink every blue moon. We must have just had one, Dave. :)
