Shortly after HS, I dated a young lady by the name of Bartow, I believe. After a short time, she surprised me with a statement that I poo-pooed then. I mean I was probably a newly christened 19-year old. She said she'd never met anyone like me, saying I was part poet, part artist and part philosopher. That nice young lady isn't young anymore and the 19-year old isn't either. But I do believe she saw something in me I hadn't seen yet. I will say that the title of this piece is true and I wonder how Cathy's life progressed over time? It is said you can't serve two masters and be true to either. You can't be true to your inner vision/truth and be true to mankind. I say this humbly and in no way egotistically. This is a 6 by 4.5 inches gel pen with gray Crayola drawing on medium bond acid-free paper. Original Jones Art isn't who he used to be, but is he any better here in northwest Austin, Texas?

YOU TRULY APPEAR ALL SHE SAID ABOUT YOU CHARLES. I HOPE YOU ONCE AGAIN MET HER AND HAVE A GOOD TALK. YOU'LL HAVE A LOT TO SAY. KEEP THINKING AND TRYING!!

Artist Reply: Thanks, Joanie! I'm on a nostalgia kick, I think. It comes with age. Hope all is well with you. :)

Well I think she pegged you correctly, Charles. You do have that rational critical inquiring mind ...and you combine it well with your art in an entertaining way... just sayin' Nice black and white : )

Artist Reply: Back in the day women used to change their last names when they were married. That doesn't happen that much anymore. So finding someone, especially a female, from decades back is difficult. I'm fairly good at sleuthing though. I found a lady I had a crush on in the 6th grade---that was 1963---only to discover she'd died the year before. Anyway, I need to keep moving toward true north for as long as I can, Dave.
