It is snowing again today. This feels like storm 17,467 this year. The temperature has increased to 29F, though. I can't believe I am going to say this, but I would rather go back to -2 and no snow. It is so debilitating to me - mentally and physically. I don't know how I am going to make it through this winter with my sanity intact, let alone any more.
I managed to get some art done yesterday. I did a prisma pencil portrait of a friend of mine that is a server in my favorite local restaurant. I was letting my son play on his DS forever, and zone out (he needed a major league distraction anywhere but home). We cozied up by the fire, he with his video game and me with my paper and pencils. Considering that she could not hold still, of course, and could only come by a few times to "pose" it came out okay. She has a fabulous bone structure and a smile that can light up a room. Yes, I gave it to her, and no, I didn't get a photo of it. That's okay, it was a great exercise for me.
