About JMN

I live in Texas and devote much of my time to easel painting on an amateur basis. I stream a lot of music, mostly jazz, throughout the day. I like to read and memorize poetry.

      Thanks, Sue! It’s the first time WordPress has notified me of something from the past to “re-post” and I took the bait. Wordy though it is, it just seemed to suit the moment. Again! Doubt I’ll do this on a regular basis. Once and done is the general rule here. Just an aside since you are an artist: My sketch turned out gruesomely feral. It wasn’t my intention to distort the face maliciously. but these things either land well or unexpectedly, and aren’t improved with belaboring.
