12 Across "One _ at a Time"

SOLD

This older man sat quite still, in his summer attire, concentrating on his crossword puzzle. Just long enough for me to capture his wonderful character.

    Bonjour ma chère Nora,

    Je suis très contente aujourd'hui, après mon absence estivale de pouvoir à nouveau admirer vos oeuvres.
    J'aime beaucoup la capture de ce vieil homme absorbé par son jeu. On peut le sentir très concentré.
    Très joli travail.
    Gros bisous
