Don’t judge me because of my lines and curves and wrinkles. There’s a wisdom that comes with them. Relax under my canopy and I will teach you. I definitely envisioned this in black and white when I took the picture. So I changed it to black and white and adjusted the different levels to get aContinue reading “Lines of Wisdom”
