TGIF


So I've decided the minibus is the way to go. I got up before the sun was out to finish my sixteen lovely paintings for Robert Reed today. Great plan for winter when the it's too cold to walk twenty minutes carrying a cardboard dinosaur. Then again, maybe I should just bring a sleeping bag and yoga mat to the studio? Hmm. Ilana, the Sniggles and I have grand plans to create a carrot cake this weekend in the TD kitchen. I'm judging Extemp Sunday for the high school tournament.... It's going to be weird being on the other side of things! Right now I'm painting really thick. Think Goya. Think Rembrandt. Reed told me to "indulge" myself with paint. Last night I knew it was time to get some sleep when I caked the background paint on my paints and started applying it to the paper. He wants us to "stop trying to disguise the fact that it's paint." Here's a picture of Rembrandt's slaughtered ox. Cheers!
