I’m gonna stick my snooty nose right up in the air and say “One should not judge by appearances!” … though in Gabe’s case, he always appears to be utterly lovely to me, and I suspect that he probably **IS** utterly lovely, too.

If you know me, then you know that I will say this: I am of two minds! Part of me howls to the skies in a rebel cheer when I see his undone tie. And part of me ignores the tie altogether in complete fascination with his words, his commitment to his craft, and his desire to be involved in the world. So I agree with all comments on this post.

I must admit that I am more interested in what he says than how his tie looks…

Tina, I TOTALLY agree…much more handsome when his apparel is neat and tidy.

Thanks so much for this picture. Although I cannot fault this man, the one thing that does drive me crazy is when his tie is not on straight. There’s a great English saying, “Don’t spoil the ship for a hapeth of tar”; he looks so handsome/sexy when wearing a suit, but it’s totally ruined, (for me at least), when his tie is not on correctly!! Great picture – great tie!!

OMG he looks good in that picture!!. Like Lozzie says….thud…one moment til I pick myself up off the floor in utter despair and devastation! The tie is tight to his neck and reasonably straight and his hair is short and he’s looking like he’s lost a fair bit of weight…hmmmm…..why aren’t you here Gabe?

OK, I’ll tell my hypothalamus to go to bed now, and add that he’s my inspiration to do similar work locally and thanks to Business To Arts folks for making this availbale.

Hugs, TwoMoons

Thank you verymuch for sharing this Stella.
I had not heard about this before. It is great to read about how Gabriel works to support (Irish) art.
