What !

Agree with Iraklis' description of the expressions. This is a very self-contained composition, and I am very taken with the light and dark treatment which in my amateur opinion contributes significantly to the self-containment and story of the expressions.

Thurber's Dog
by Germaine

Comment:
Yes indeed: Thurber was practically a member of our household when I was growing up. (His work, I mean). When I clicked on the picture and title it all came back in an instant. But this is a wonderful find and another of your great compositions of light and shadow and line.

Most arresting pose, expression and canine type. Clearly a dog to like and respect.

Fast Lane
by Germaine

Comment:
Not sure the guy's head in the doorway is such a bad thing: it makes for a very integrated composition, shape and linewise. The interior stairway is a positive Germaine touch, and when you look at the guy you notice stuff like maybe he is a bit older than most skateboarders, and his butt is really about to pop out of his low rise jeans albeit cheerily in red. No, really, the lines are excellent, and we see enough of the head and cunning background. And the lines get better the more you look.

Oh, sweet: a posthumous blue and a popular brown. And sweetly done.
