Irony: Today's creation in which includes works of the past.

" by Lena Giaimo" is a piece of card board that came with one of the art stes my godfather, Uncle Nino, and his girlfriend Neysa gave me for Christmas, with a watercolor design painted by myself taped to it. The watercolor design I painted last Monday morning at around 6 am while listening to a Robert Duval interview, serves as a background for the sketch pasted on top of it. This sketch I started during the last five minutes of Geometry, then finished it while waiting for Ma to pick me up from the gym a few nights back. In addition, the picture also has multiple puzzle pieces from the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band puzzle I "completed" to give to my girl Jackie as a Christmas gift. I left the puzzle incomplete on purpose, telling her in my own way to love this life that seems so complicated at times, and we feel obligated to search for answers when all we're really looking for is love. The successful feeling when finding a piece to a real puzzle reminds me of finding the next step in life I guess.
