Too Young To Sing the Blues

Billie Holiday - Jody Hewgill


She called me wishy washy
It broke me down
I'm just a pile of quick sand
Pretending I'm solid ground
So excuse me for being so fickle
I am just some young blood
Swimming in an old soul
- Arum Rae

It's interesting how we use the same quotes/song lyrics, and then such different pictures...

I forgot the name of this style of art, but you seem to be developing a fondness for it, maybe? It always reminds me of Mr. Parker from the pretender, with his portrait hanging in his office

The last two paintings have been found entirely by chance and were just perfect (you don't know how long I looked for something to go with the Spending quote!), but overall it's not my favorite style.

Mr. Parker's portrait?! I don't really know what you're talking about, but I want to.
