    1. It was inspired by Benjamin Button. I like the exploration that tests the boundaries of love. I actually too the header photo while I was in Venice, Italy. Was such a curious-looking place that I had to snap a pic.

  1. This is lovely, but I see trouble in the future. Not from him, but how long will she be ok with getting old and wrinkly and him just staying as he was?

    1. Those are the challenges they are currently facing. The tests are coming from outside perspectives in the form of pressures to conform to what is acceptable or normal. But if they remain true to their feelings for each other, maybe they’ll find a way.


  2. Calls to mind Oscar Wilde’s A Picture of Dorian Gray, in which the title character never ages but his portrait shows every degradation of his character over time. It seems more of a curse than a blessing, to stay young alone.
