"We are imperfect mortal beings, aware of that mortality even as we push it away, failed by our very complication, so wired that when we mourn our losses we also mourn, for better or for worse, ourselves. as we were. as we are no longer. as we will one day not be at all.”
~ Joan Didion

I had the pleasure of meeting Marvin Hardy once at Bling Bling Jam where he gave a talk about his life and career in balloons, he was a pioneer, instrumental in making balloon art what it is today, one of the Old Gods - and the world is poorer for his passing.
I wasn't planning on posting this, I was just doodling when I got the news - but it seemed appropriate to share.
RIP sir.
