Painting With Bob Ross

***Circle of Bob***
(onomatopoeia of angels singing in unison haha)
-we stand in a circle holding hands and close our eyes-

Her: Everyone take a deep breathe
-everyone inhales-
Her: Everyone exhale out all the negative energy in your body
-everyone exhales-
Her: And breathe in Bob!!!
-everyone inhales-

*we open our eyes and let go of each other's hands*
big silly grins all round
this chick is fucking awesome haha



Nuit Blanche

Her: Those women have moustaches!
She points at a lady who went by
I laugh and strain to see them through the crowd 
As we go by a naked statue of a lady I put my hand over her eyes
Her(laughing): Thank you for protecting my virgin eyes 
When we get to the Dali exhibit she is mesmerized  
Her: What a genius. I want to marry this man.
We declare Dali the king of selfies and dance the night away.

Getcha Paint On

I have decided to do the noble thing.
And stop searching for romantic love.
And to instead take a writing class and also oil portrait painting class.
And I wouldn't be surprised if this in fact leads to me finding the right person- like that time I COULDNOTFINDMYGLASSESANYWHEREAGHHHHHHH and it turned out I was wearing them.
Sadly, a true story. Circa 1998.

I've been spending a considerate amount of time doing what one of my dear artist friends refers to as, "skirt chasing".
I am embarrassed to use that expression. But as I said, it's not mine. I am a simple borrower of diction(and often toothpaste).
It was pointed out to me today that I spend a lot of energy on this love thing and perhaps it's time I took a break so my rueful spirit can repair itself properly for once.
It's been like relationship-relationship-relationship-relationship for the past 4ish years.
Although don't be surprised if in like 4 days I am waxing eloquently about someone's luscious hair using various climatic metaphors.
At least I will be writing about it in my writing class with other humans haha or I will be painting their portrait while in a class surrounded by other humans.
I'm excited. Art class: here I come!


Nighttime

Always want to make art when I should be going to bed! Bah, what is it about nighttime that makes people creative? I know I'm not alone here.

Here are some pics of things I've painted at like 3am.
