Is this my time?

is this my time?
Is this my time? a larger gouache portrait.... a definite nostalgic feel to this one - and she reminds me, I think it is her hair, a little of a late great aunt.... The title comes from thinking: how is to feel you 'fit' in this moment, and yet so many people feel they are outside, they think perhaps they were born at 'the wrong time'.... when is right, how soon is now, and how many cups of tea in a day do you need to stay sane?

I'd say two or three for my sanity after a morning cup of coffee! Beautiful work, Cathy.

I need five ;)

And at first I thought I should have been born in time to go to the Woodstock festival and be part of that movement. Now I know this is the right time for me.. We need hippie-like-minded people now, I believe :)

what a lovely portrait!
to start my day I prefer a can of green tea, one cup of black tea in the afternoon...
have a good time,
Stefanie
