Note to potential new followers: I block what I view as “X-rated” accounts, because I don’t want my name on re-posts appearing in such contexts, but I do post art that others, perhaps, might view as “R-rated.” Which is to say, please do your research, i.e., browse the archive, before you sign up.

I once asked an artist if a pen-and-ink drawing that he had posted that was based on a well-known historical photo of a seated woman was for sale, & he said yes, & I asked how much, & he said make me an offer, & I did, & he got very angry—which completely cured me of the temptation to make offers!
