In some views, the title is cut out

.. and framed in green to suggest a direction. The leaf looks wounded, so the title has some depth. It's a simple strategy to take out the other coloring, but effective.

I like your double-entendre fairy tales - by the way, have you withdrawn three or four others from this series?

I'm not sure that I understand the title - does it mean "How I live"? The voluptuous red blooming by the sewer is a variation on an old theme: for instance, the lotus is a symbol in Buddhist thought because it makes such a lovely blossom in the mud. Shouldn't we assume that an image you make is already always an image of you yourself? Anyway, I'm not going to quibble, as this is a fine picture.

The title really makes this picture.
