Here is a painting that reminds me of some one I know. I will leave it to her to figure it out and comment. Ohh… The mystery and suspense.
My pointy elbowed father (who paints with paintbrushes regardless of how long his eyebrows grow) gets very excited about things. It is perhaps possible that he only gets excited about being excited about things but I will leave that. It is enough to say that when I was growing up (I still am so says I), he would often say to me (in a way that let me know that his demeanour alone should change my ways and put me on the narrow path)that I should be excited about things. I should find something that really impressed me and embrace it and let my excitement for it rule my temperament. This excitement (with some other mysterious potion called ‘practice’) would lead to my happiness.
Well to a greater or lesser degree I did what I could considering the barriers to entry. Still I see what the old man is able to do with his excitement and I am glad for him. This painting is not by him. It is by Kurbanov and it was poached from a website sent to me by the geezer himself.
So, who do you think it is?

mom?
a distant second to that, Sarah?
Nope! Not even close! The person I am thinking of is Briana’s age.
It’s Sharon!!
I love your comments about Dad’s life philosphy. He is dizzingly excited about his new crop of oils — and has just touched up Mona again — unfortunately she’s got a little too my rouge now on her left cheek. Love the pics of Wagner and his new moustache! By the way, the art of the deal is still alive — I closed the big one late Monday night.
Love, Mom
Congratulations Mom. I look forward to hear more about the details of Private labelling.
I think perhaps this is a bit issue specific for a comment stream about how much this painting looks like Sharon and that Dad has pointy elbows.
But you are always welcome here and I am very pleased you commented.
You bet yer sweet boots its Sharon! Well its really some Russian chick but it will serve as a painting of our pal.
