Some stills - the August moon, the yellow flower moon (Osage), shot with my Canon Vixia S100.

Altered Lifedrawing2
Altered Lifedrawing3, 28cm x 35.5cm, 11"x14", India ink, conté crayon, 100lb archival paper.
Words written in the drawing:

caterpillar woman

If this image becomes an opportunity to dialogue with yourself about various issues, perhaps age-related, perhaps grandmother or elderly mother, or who knows, the crone, or perhaps death itself, reaching the edge of the lifespan and finding your body becoming larval and the wings that will take you out, enable you to flee a collapsing body, then ... yes...
(With thanks to Bent Lorentzen for eliciting this response from me to some of his comments on the drawing.)
