The obvious joy in his scraggly voice always caused a sort of truce to transpire between the torrents and their targets. He never wore shoes, and though quite old, seemed ageless. #suspendedanimation
2 years ago by sarahzarstudio (Detail from Sphinx Rehabilitation Project). Over the last few months, I've sent most of my larger pieces off to their new homes, and soon it will be my turn to follow in their footsteps. For now, pardon any delayed communications. I'm communing with the boxes...
