It's difficult to find balance in this world when it's more like a pinball game than a quest for self betterment. It's even more difficult for the unclassified hybrids who come from the shadows to sun themselves on occasion. This is a 6 by 4.5 inches gel pen with color pencil drawing on medium bond acid-free paper. Original Jones Art says the sun's too hot right now in northwest Austin, Texas. The shadows are just right. PS: For those of you who think 'balance' only refers to standing on two feet and walking about, there is also emotional and intellectual balance which, to my mind, is much more important than the first.

What beautiful poetic words. Stay strong my friend Charles

Hey Charles , Very hot picture, very nice. Hope you re doing well up there. Keep it cool, Erik

Artist Reply: Up and down is relative, Erik. Let's just say I'm withstanding the pressures of 'contemporary' existence with perseverance and fortitude. Yeah, that sounds about right. Hope you are doing likewise or better. :)

WE NEED TO BE BALANCED BUT HE STILL NEEDS HIS TWO LEGS. OK?

Artist Reply: Well, Joanie, he 'could' be a hopper. That one looks pretty strong. ;)

Quite the talon , keeping a firm grip I see . Cool one Charles : ) We're to get some hot temps next week ,,, that can change though because it's Chicago .

Artist Reply: August is usually our hottest month but September can be almost as bad, Dave. Staying in the shade means staying indoors for me. I'm even putting my 3D projects on hold for a bit. Ha. :)
