That's one of my favourite paintings for him.

Saw your comment on Forsooth's post and checked out your profile. I'm pretty sure I must know you in reality, but there isn't much info on your profile.

Hellooooo, welcome welcome welcome! Yours is the very first comment on my infantile attempt at a blog, so excuse my excitement! I haven't conciously decided to be anonymous, I only started this blog about a week ago...so haven't made up my mind yet. Anyway, that Forsooth post really caused a riot, felt like sharing some of my own incoherence. But tell me, why do you think you might know me, very curious!

hehe..I'm honoured to be your first!

Nothing much.. it's just that the "artsy fartsy" community (akeed I don't consider myself one of them, bass you know what I mean..) in Cairo is not that big!

The size of a pea! Well, here's a clue, I ain't an artist but I work with them, and I recently helped organize a solidarity campaign for Lebanon called Li-Beirut. Your move e!
