Description This type of work has been done so much so to put a different angle on it and to make it my own i took a photo of my youngests hands holding the beads

My good Friend a little while back held an exhibit of my work in his Art Gallery in the USA, there is a guy who every so often is mentioned in Chris's Journals called Jim. Well the storey is that Jim seems to have been sent to look after me and make sure my name gets about town by giving out my cards
When he found out i had been in hospital he sent me a get well card which is really out of this world (he made it for me) now i won't get into personal issues regarding Jim but he has his own problems which seem to be put aside for others to cut this a bit shorter i'm dedicating this drawing to my good friend Jim

This is so beautiful, David
I really love the symbolism in it and the message, and of course the drawing in itself is, as always, a masterpiece

Beautiful! The shading on those delicate hands and the beads really shines through. And the story that goes along with this is very touching. Good people are often hard to come by, good friends are even harder to find. Luckily for me, I found you, you found Chris, and now Jim too. It's sweet to know how you all are looking out for each other. Lovely work David, and I'm sure Jim will be overjoyed with this piece.

Well that probably didn't sound right what i meant was we've never met but he seems to be such a caring guy, he never fails to ask Chris how i'm doing, this is from the time Chris showed some of my work in his gallery

seems to be well known our crappy post hey if you want it you can have it, are you going to send me some
