ReplyDeletesee how I bring down the fine elegant tone of our Friday Night Nudes

Mine either, fortunately since it is still behind me I don't have to dwell on it too much. You gals make me feel so much better!
ReplyDeleteHey, what about us guys?? We liked that sample of Ass as Goddess just as much as you did!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reason to admire the glutes, PS.
LOL, thanks for the laugh ladies and gent...I won't be discussing my buttocks either but they sure don't look anything like I saw in any of the paintings....makes me wonder what they WOULD look like painted, hahahahaaha...oh, too funny!!
ReplyDeletedear pagan, thank you for my friday night art fix and the laugh too :)
