The first 2 - I love the colour and felt that the young lady was selling her body.
Then from the slim to - well shock with a smile, thoughts now are slim lady begging for money and then making her money - after a few years she had plenty of food.

Your choice of artwork and the style of this new blog are food for the mind. The Henry Moore's are a treat.
Is this as well as or instead of your other blog???

So nice that you came by, aguja. This blog is in addition to The Pagan Sphinx. I will try to post to both, whenever time and mind allow.
