At the moment I saw this painting yesterday, I thought "If I have this painting in my bedroom I'd always smile when looking at it". Later, this thought made me remember one phrase attributed to George Bernard Shaw: "Beauty is all very well at first sight; but who ever looks at it when it has been in the house three days?" Then a day passed on, and I saw the painting today again, noticed that my impression didn't changed, and the memory of the previous quote, made me remember yet another attributed to G.B. Shaw again!: "You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul." That is more accurate, 'cos if I have this painting in my bedroom I'd always smile when looking at it.

runnerfrog, please come to New York, better yet, I'll come to Argentina, and let's go out for coffee so I can hear you talk for 5 hours.
As always, thank you for your comment.

You must believe me that I bore people to death.
My comment ratio is my talking ratio. I'm very silent. ;-)
