Real People

I got so excited when I saw this dynamic duo seated in the downstairs lobby area of the Museum of Modern Art in NYC. They had such character and now I can imagine their stories in my mind. He’s a former professor of philosophy and they had once had an affair when she was a visiting student from Portugal back in the 1950s. Now they’re just friends and they spend every Thursday afternoon at the Museum. OR…maybe you can come up with a more inventive scenario. :)

    she caught the old guy cheating and decided to take him to the museum as a form of torture…LOL…just kidding. I like your story better…it’s way more romantic. My story is more the gritty edge of a cynical mind :)) Great capture. I love the animation of the lady and the guy’s expression is just price -less.
