I empathize, Philip, and find solace in three measures of Appleton's and a reverie of The Clash

Indeed it is :)

Thank-you so much for your perceptive comments. I very happy to have your descriptive commentary tagged onto this image. It's a departure for me and has been very well received in the fine art world. Now, if just more people would buy prints of fine art nudes for their walls. I've come to realize that success in the figurative genre will not really pay for itself monetarily but it does seem to provide me a lot of satisfaction with the end result.

Is that the famous Appleton's Rum?

Thnks Wendy. Curators at Duncan Miller Gallery thought so too. Just chosen for Your Daily Photograph auction!
