Hello P :) Many thanks for dropping by and leaving your wonderful words. I used chalks for this one. I debated on using pencils as that's my favourite. But I think chalks really give it the smoky silhouette. I sometimes use oil paints or water colours too. I also mix things. But this is very basic chalk. So grateful for your kind words my friend 💜💜💜😘 right back atcha xx

If only time could be caught. Caught and locked in a vault. But then, I guess, memories would become worthless. I adore this poem. Aew words that speak the truth and hold such gravity. Wonderful. The artwork is amazing too. Brilliant and brilliant x

Gosh Neville I couldn't ask for a better response to my writing and art. Thanks so much. Yes some of my entries do have my own art to them. I never had confidence in my art until I joined Cosmo where people have really supported me. So thank you for boosting my terrible confidence today. Thanks for the Pin too 
Your friend

Enjoy reading something short and sweet and delivers it's message in so few words.
Less is more approach and your picture mirrors perfectly the mood of the piece.
Superb to read and then gaze on the artwork you have created.
