  1. Well drawn she seems slightly unease in the company of her own Ghost, she's not sure if she should run to your Island off Solitudes..bring the ghost or leave her behind what to do , she' go the Islands off Solitudes to decide what to do...this is what I would do

    1. So much to be decided, seated as she was viewing her previous pose as a ghost☺. I’d choose the islands too…
      Thank you

  2. In the manner you drew their feet it reminds the mermaid...so they're still looking for voice I guess....

    1. An interesting observation.. A much more interesting conversation too.
      In each of these poses, I spent so much more time above, the legs became an afterthought as the poses came to an end.

  3. I feel so numb today (over losing my friend)
    So it's good to be here and seeing your sketches ..
    Always so enjoy your work, Anthony

    1. I’m sorry for your loss.. The good memories at such times is all we have. Glad to be a diversion..

  4. They seem in awe of each other..."B" and her ghost.
    Maybe each perceives in the other a missing part...some kind of unfulfilled potential...?
    Perhaps the solution could be found in the Islands' solitude...:)

    1. Looking at our ghosts is bond to surface any missing parts, things not realized.. The islands may not provide all the answers. They’re a great place to go to avoid the questions you don’t want answers for☺
