Very very very special LjMaxx
1\ Excellent photograph
2\ The interaction from the sort of floating head and little man in front
3\ The sort of build in puzzle you posted .. we dont only look to the photo
but we try to decipher the hidden riddle.
A master post !
Goes to my FAV..
Greetings from Holland:
John
LjMaxx replied
Greetings from New England USA.. Well you just made my day even better with this comment. Thanks John44. This sculpturer lives in N.W.Mexico. I was roaming in P.Mita late one night last Jan. when I saw him working in his shop thru the window. He let me in and we talked of art and many interessting things. He let me take some shots and off into the night I went again. My lucky timeing indeed.. BTW.. Did you fiqure out the message I wrote?
John44
PS
Oh .. yeah ..A question ..are you in real life Meg Ryan ??
(incognito in here .. that is ..looking to your intro photo)
:-)
LjMaxx replied
Hahahah.. No not Meg. Just Lj. But I have often been told that she looks alot like me…:)))
Brian Carey
Great piece of work!
LjMaxx replied
Thanks so much Brian… :)
John44
Yes I have the answer to your picture.. here comes:
I .. the double of Meg Ryan… like to have a close and nice friend to Red Bubble interact with..
His name must be John.. a good helpful friend, if I have any questions / trouble with a photo..
and he must be Dutch.. since 400 years ago it was the Dutch who founded New York
(the original name was : New Amsterdam) So John .. yohooo yohoo where are you …
And my Answer .. Here I am!!!
Tell me, thats the hidden riddle ..Right Maxi?
Well ..ok.. I am your RB buddy :
))I ‘add’ you to my list and have a smashing eastern :
