The afterthought part of the title is due to those floral or sunburst shapes being from a whiskey ad. The same goes for the blue water, which is part of a decanter. It was used once in the far-flung past, but not recently. See here . Meanwhile, that city drawing is from a dairy company. I've heard of Scotch and milk as an old-timey drink, so this would be pretty close. (The great James Baldwin referenced it in "Sonny's Blues," for instance.)

Any ephemera of a male figure who has even a hint of skin showing is much more likely to be in black and white than in color.

Cinderella's stepsisters should've gone for a walk in the woods. ALL the shoe sizes are available there! Those ladies would be married into royal families now, too. ;) Shown smaller than the original completed size of 4350 X 4950 pixels.

During the time I had to take a break from making pictures, I always had this little blocky staircase shape in the back of my mind. I don't know why. But nine months later, here it is. :) Shown smaller than the original completed size of 4050 X 4050 pixels. See one original source here .

Trying out something really new always seems like such a great idea-- until almost the entire month goes by before you can resolve it. :o :D Shown smaller than the original completed size of 2265 X 3010 pixels.
