Old Fashioned

Is the topic for this week on  Illustration Friday



"It's that wonderful old-fashioned idea that others come first and you come second. This was the whole ethic by which I was brought up. Others matter more than you do, so 'don't fuss, dear; get on with it."
 ~ Audrey Hepburn

I love this quote, you can just imagine darling Audrey stating it in the most earnest manner.
I've put this image in as a painting I did in ode to the masters, it may seem a little 'old fashioned' in style but I LOVED painting it and I'm hoping holds a contemporary twist ?
