    1. to release a fragrance pure
      like a verse from a favourite song …

      Many men have loved the bells
      You fastened to the rein
      And everyone who wanted you
      They found what they will
      always want again
      Your beauty lost to you yourself
      Just as it was lost to them
      Oh, take this longing from my tongue
      Whatever useless things
      these hands have done
      Let me see your beauty broken down
      Like you would do for one you love

      ~ Leonard Cohen

    1. Muchas gracias, Chado.
      To quote Leonard Cohen …
      There is a crack in everything,
      that’s how the light gets in.
      Especialmente …
      la más hermosa rosa🌹
      despite any
      metallic exit of light 😎

    1. Thanks for viewing my attempt
      at mico-cubism within a digital
      macro illusion.

      “Every act of creation is first of all
      an act of destruction.”

      ~ Pablo Picasso

      “Creation and destruction are the
      two ends of the same moment. And everything between the creation and
      the next destruction is the journey of
      life.”

      ~Amish Tripathi

      “Creation and destruction are one,
      to the eyes who can see beauty.”

      ~Savitri Devi

      A hommage to Pablo’s deconstructive
      portraiture. But with a button, rather
      than a paintbrush 😎

  9. This was a stunningly beautiful montage… love the way the rose red goes with the black and white art… lovely rendered, and the whole loving vibe with it too… powerful. Also love reading the matrix of comments as usual. Is this one also your lovely daughter David? Whoever it is… just perfect. 🌹

    1. From the full spectrum of my
      stone-washed heart, thank you multi-chromatically, Lia 💛🌹
      I must confess, the subject of
      this piece is none other than
      that British Rose, Billie Piper.
      A bit of a big time Doctor Who
      obsession on my part, but at
      least I know I have a problem 😎

      1. Ah. I had a feeling I was missing some famous reference. :)) Aw yeah Rose was very good. Saw that version of Dr. Who, too, in the naughties I think. Husband was a fan too. 🤓👌 Good job dialing this one in, from that loving phone booth. ❤️
