As for aging, I remember a time when I met a very old woman downtown one day when I was in my late teens. I was on a photo assignment for a class at art school. She was so old and so beautiful. Her face was a mass of wrinkles, but I thought she was beautiful. She had a kind, friendly face. She wouldn't let me photograph her, but I have remembered her all these years later as I am myself starting to get wrinkles. I am going to age gracefully and naturally. I think that is preferable to looking like a plastic doll with lopsided features. At least I will only look old instead of deformed, too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20801144.post-73540904911497503352007-05-31T21:42:00.000+10:002007-05-31T21:42:00.000+10:00Great drawing, Anastasia!Great drawing, Anastasia!Serena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20801144.post-12339783214707233982007-05-29T15:15:00.000+10:002007-05-29T15:15:00.000+10:00Lovely art,you captured that pensive aging thing!Lovely art,you captured that pensive aging thing!jungle dream pagodahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12290854834776445693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20801144.post-18368140416751244632007-05-29T12:15:00.000+10:002007-05-29T12:15:00.000+10:00you are so right, it is sad all this non-acceptanc...you are so right, it is sad all this non-acceptance makes us more unhappy instead of the other way around.<BR/>i love your illustration, anastasia!Veronica TMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09304495023866725837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20801144.post-56358434132139456282007-05-27T11:50:00.000+10:002007-05-27T11:50:00.000+10:00haha seems like we are all a little concerned abou...haha seems like we are all a little concerned about growing old...the best thing I guess is to stay out of the sun or wear sunblock...its the only thing that works!Anastasiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12998009178493796361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20801144.post-40661272153207095562007-05-26T10:56:00.000+10:002007-05-26T10:56:00.000+10:00Very nice sketch.

I'm getting my hair done on Tuesday as part of the make-myself-feel-and-look-good-for-job-hunting makeover, but also to get rid of all the grey caused by the last few months of stress! Help me!

I could eat spicy lamb meat and tzatziki first thing in the morning. I could eat garlic and onions all throughout the day too. No wonder I had a Greek man in my life for sooo many years...<BR/><BR/>As for aging. All I can say is, there is something to be said for aging naturally and gracefully. I think it is better to look a bit aged than to look aged with some strange scars pulling you up and sideways from your 55th facelift. But, that is just me....xxoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20801144.post-8180611243979339022007-05-24T23:11:00.000+10:002007-05-24T23:11:00.000+10:00This comment has been removed by the author.Paula Adams Perezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13802776515098037155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20801144.post-88360655016520852302007-05-24T23:09:00.000+10:002007-05-24T23:09:00.000+10:00This is a great sketch, Anastasia!
