FORGOTTEN
It came to me that tying a knot in a piece of string around your finger was to help you remember. Of course you had to remember what the knot was for. So the memory again is forgotten. too many things to remember maybe. A hanky was another thing I recall being used to tie knots in to not to forget, how bizarre we are. I enjoyed doodling this picture the other night. The last college class we talked about the brain, the different parts that dominate etc, our learning and memories. It must have been all on my mind when I began this picture. Using "copic markers" and a black artliner.

Hi Gai

I recall many friends and family recommending the knot solution for a poor memory, unfortunately there is not enough string or a large enough hanky to cope with my...what were we talking about?
(love the symbolism of your drawing suits the topic to a tee, well done).
