Thomas Haller Buchanan said...: Daniel, the whole idea is that they're taking a break from their arduous posing, though some are bit too stiff to do so I think.

Massimo, I've seen their paintings, but I can't immediately specifically think of who they are. Anybody else know off hand?; May 21, 2012 at 2:18 PM

Thomas Haller Buchanan said...: Daniel, good gawsh I'm dense. I get what you were saying before. You are absolutely right, that would've been super cool.

I'm sorry, I'm brain-dead and beyond.; May 21, 2012 at 9:13 PM
