How to name a painting....
Me: (staring at monitor, with deer in headlights look, having massive brain fart)
"Child!"
Child: "Whaaaaat?"
Me: "Commme heeerre!"
Child: (Slouching in door way with the ever popular 'I'm busy doing absolutly nothing, so what in the hell do you want now' look.)
Me: 'Name this painting for me...please"
Child: (Rolls eyes, makes big sigh sounds) "Mom, I don't waaant tooo, you know I haaate doooing this.
Me: (giving child, 'name this painting or feel my wrath, look) "Just think of something"
Child: (Deep heavy sigh, sideways slouch, and....rolling eyes)
"Why? I'm no good at this, and besides, it's just some clouds and trees"
Me:Thanks.

On with the babble....
*I need to share some photo's with you folks, since I've shot about 14872000 in the past week or so. Managed to get some seriously beautiful shots of the sky over a 2 hour period, including a rainbow, a fantastic sunset, and the moon. It was just one of those lucky days, when everything just came together. By the end of the 2 hour period, I was squatting in the bushes, (only place to be, to get the shot I wanted) drinking a beer and shooting with my left hand. hehehe...wonder what the neighbors thought of that? ;-)
I'll be showing some later on this week.
*J. just gave all three dogs a bath, they were very stinky. Maybe next time, when they decide to whine and fuss at 5:30am, and wake me up, they will think twice about it.
Since I'm sure they are looking at having a bath as some sort of punishment...like they always do.
*My child had a sweet sixteen par-tay, friday night. The DJ was really good, and all the chil'rens had a good time. J and I were on our best behavior. I only did a few silly dances, and J only sang karaoke one time. ;-)
*Since I was up so fecking early this morning, I put in a nice long amount of time, in the studio.
Where I proceeded to paint nothing but....complete shit.
I knew I was headed down the endless road of turd, and instead of stopping, I continued on.
Even picked up a painting that was 99% done, and shittied that all up.
One of these days I WILL learn to stop, when I start seeing craptastic emerging on the canvas. Instead of getting caught up in this vicious cycle of trying to re-deem/fix the crap. :-/
*My truck is parked sideways in the drive way, right now. I think I'll start parking like that from now on, just for giggles.
Hope all is good with you all, the sun is out and warming your smiles, and the gods/goddess have blessed you with good beer, better food, and great laughs.
