Hell, not your fault, no way you could have known.
BTW Hope the Elder JW brethren okd that art course.
I have never worked in an office unlike a namby pamby button pusher like you. My ruddy complexion is formed by natures elements and my body honed by physical toil, the like of what a fatty like you could only dream of.

Only discovered her a few years ago when researching female artists for a lesson.
A remarkable woman and such emotional art.
She was apparently in pain her whole life.
I think she may have committed suicide - I'll check later.

Georgia O'Keefe ... I really don't get that - all those bloody flowers!

School I was at did an Art module based on "Day of the Dead"
