Anonymous. Meeting the Guest of Honour. 2009
Meeting the Guest of Honour (Anonymous, 2009)
This was an incident during the visit of Patriarch Kirill Gundyaev to Solovki in August 2009. It was on a Live Journal site, http://nixette.livejournal.com/ Apparently, it was scanned from the November/December 2009 issue of Russian Life (which is available at Barnes & Noble in the north-eastern USA, I can’t speak for other regions), which is still on sale, I’ll warrant.
The clergy lined up in anticipation of the patriarch’s arrival, then, a mutt strolled out of the crowd, moved amongst the priests, sniffing the air happily. It caused smiles all around, but, no one moved. After sowing such cheery confusion, the dog sauntered leisurely back into the crowd.

I have let this site lie fallow for some time as I healed completely from a spot of physical crankiness. Now, it’s time to get some art back up, and I’ll be posting regularly from now on (I can’t guarantee that it shall be daily, though).
It’s good to back at the art beat… it keeps me from going stale.
Cheers,
