Morning melancholy. Little table scene. Took me forever to bring to completion. I kept adding a stroke here, there. Find time and unwind. Was not happy with ink colors, greys and brownish. Should leave it for quick sketches on a train, I think. I used my new Kuretake pens I got online.

Thank you very much Barbara, I appreciate your kind words and I have to say, I am fond of your site. I am also an animal lover and have 2 bubbly little dogs.

@Bob, thank you. Eggs, reheated, were consumed way before I put my last brush stroke.
Happy Holidays to you too. When will you start posting your work here again?

Ira, I have a nagging feeling that these two fine well-mannered gentlemen – Uncle Bob and Ziza – are stuck at the “Top Contributor” door having the following dialogue:
- After you, sir!
- No, sir, after you!
- Oh, no, I insist!
- But of course, sir, it will be my pleasure to follow you, sir!
Ira, here’s what you should do to resolve this conundrum like a true lady… Post a ton of new stuff quick to surpass them in contribution count. Because while these grumpy old farts pretend to be polite to each other, in reality they’re simply holding that door for YOU!
Keep posting, we’ll see if I’m right!

Gotcha Leo. But in my hectic life I am only able to scribble few things here-there, don’t have a lot, but will use my imagination , because really miss Bob and Ziza here. So please, forgive sketchiness and imperfections.
