Ch-ch-ch-changes...

Not that I want to talk about my most recent mini-upheaval, but it got that song stuck in my head.
"...time may change me, but I can't change time." blah.

Anyway. update. I'm still alive. New powercord for laptop recieved :-D
Finished pieces titles in the story series: South of Soledad, Piggy's Price, Into the Wood, Tea Party, Carol & Max, Giant Joust (& 6by6 Kerouac Dreams & Friendship-reserved), Comforting, Pouple du Nemo, Don't Panic, 8x10 Lamppost

I never could get an image I liked that was specific enough to be "Mrs. Husdon's tenants" in the color scheme I'm thinking. It'll come to me eventually.

Titles and work

I'm not going to take the time to write this entry for you, today this is for me so that maybe I can go back to having a productive day.

Finished pieces titles: South of Soledad, Piggy's Price, Into the Wood, Tea Party, Carol & Max, Giant Joust (& 6by6 Kerouac Dreams)

Piece in Progress: Friendship (requested piece), Poulpe du Nemo, Don't Panic (HHGTTG), Mrs. Hudson's Tenants, Jack the Thief

The title of a piece is helpful, but it's the work itself that should speak volumes.

Have many canvases started but due to yesterday's super high humidity I had to wait (and ran out of patience) for them to dry. I have my version of the requested piece sketched out... at least I got that doen while paint dried. I use the phrase "requested" instead of "commissioned" because 1) I haven't taken a cent in payment yet 2)I'm stubborn and going to paint what I see/sketched instead of what they described. It's all the same sentiment, but they see their image in color instead of the monochrome that I'm trying to keep to with this group... and their precise image only works in full color. If tehy don't like it *shrug* I will put it up online for sale or it will become my baby cousin's Christmas gift. When I can see a piece as clearly as this in my mind I am less stressed about it's marketability.

Oh... and the world is crazy... me feeling crazy is just simply me being slightly overwhelmed with the abundance all around me :)
