I finished my drawing today. It only took 17 and 1/2 hours to complete. Dx My knees are completely bruised (I assume my backside is worse for the wear as well), my arms and face are tanned but nothing else, my fingernails are basically black at the edges, my neck hurts, my arms hurt, and I'm super duper tired. But it was all worth it. My drawing of tigers coming out of a fish ended up being more impressive than I thought it would be. I'm happy to say I was not the worst one there. =] I was by no means the best; someone did The Birth of Venus, another did a foetus in a hole, and there were two connected drawings that made up the yellow submarine! And the Sistine Chapel, now finished, looks incredible. I hate to know that it's all going to be washed away tomorrow afternoon. The awards ceremony takes place tomorrow at 1:00 p.m. I know that I got at least one vote from an artist and five votes from the public. Four of those five votes were from my parents.
Oh, I saw Mr French this morning! He came by with his daughters to look at the drawings. I saw his feet but didn't look up from my work because I didn't know it was him, but then he said something and I was all "MR FRENCH!" and whatnot. It was pretty fab. But nobody else I knew came by. Yeah, thanks a lot for coming to see my drawing, "friends". I could use stronger language to convey the bitterness I feel towards all of you right now, but I will not. There's still time to get back on my good side, though. Theresa, you are exempt.
AND WHO ELSE HAS SEEN THE TAKING WOODSTOCK TRAILER ON TV? I AM SO PSYCHED FOR IT!
