Shallow

K-2:
@AnasaziWrites - what a stunning photo (and cool shallow focus on the beautiful script as well). Clever!

And thank you for confirming my "bots" theory about high view counts on random posts, @Erica McPhee - as well as for your kind thoughts about my "Celestial/Heavenly". @tiffany.c.a - yes! bleach! also a bit of salt.

@Cyril Jayant - your drawings are so much fun!

This prompt ended up with a sort of conceptual piece for me: Shallow = Vapid (and I get a V for my alphabet).

Then I get some visual puns in: (hey, @Zivio - this might be your sort of thing; not exactly pedantry, but some intellectual free-associating)

The shimmer ink gives a reference to Thomas Gray's poem about a cat drowned in a bowl of goldfish, ending with the admonition:
Not all that tempts your wandering eyes
And heedless hearts, is lawful prize;
Nor all that glisters, gold.

The shimmer ink on the V is Diamine's "Tempest" as in "tempest in a teapot"
The mirror in the bowl of the V mirrors the eye of the beholder.
Which is the "I" of the beholder (and my first self-portrait!)
And the ink on the "apid" of Vapid is called "Alice" from the novel "Through the Looking Glass"

AnasaziWrites:
@K-2
This one is brilliant. Clever. Sophisticated. Introspective. Self effacing. Conceptually complex and well executed. Wow. Love it.

tiffany.c.a:
@AnasaziWrites, gorgeous butterfly/flower photo and really like how you matched the writing.

@K-2, wow we get a chance to see (a bit) of you! Your skills are great and so versatile. The inks worked.

Cyril Jayant:
@AnasaziWrites  Nice writing as always.


@K-2  Your conceptual  ink drawing with more refined calligraphy ideas always bolw my mind
Thank you both for the inspirational work.
Thank you again  supporting my work. ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Now it is my turn to add just a droplet to this ocean of creativity here.  ;

Again my " Déjà Vu " series  on the INTOBER 23 from point of view of the Peanut world,
So I am glad to be here, and I did my catching  up the challenge!!!


Day 24 - Shallow.
