the boys are bigger than Elvis now!

Unfortunately, I was a little too star-struck to successfully convey to the boys that the concept of a velvet painting was meant to be funny. I think they thought I was extremely serious about this and extremely proud of this. Since they both seem to be polite and respectful people, they also took the whole thing pretty seriously. c'est la vie ( Read more... )

That is hilarious. And you're right, they do look a bit...befuddled. Proud, but befuddled.

Oh, boys...don't ever change.

gilligan2755 March 31 2009, 21:33:00 UTC

befuddled is exactly the right word to describe their expressions.

I forgot to mention that I luh-huve your icon. Sam, in particular, wears that 'stache with panache.

I'm laughing so hard over the fact they thought you were serious. I would love to know the inner dialog that went along with this photo op! Hee!!

It's an awesome job too!!

gilligan2755 March 31 2009, 21:33:57 UTC

I bet their inner dialogue included things like "Oh my god!" and "Eek!" and "Please don't let that be a gift for us!"

*dies* Dude, I saw your pic when I was picking up mine & J's and I about fell over laughing.

You totally know Dean appreciates the Velvet!Elvis paintings even if Jensen doesn't get the hilarity in it. *g*

gilligan2755 March 31 2009, 21:58:53 UTC

I think you're right that Dean would be all over it! That makes me feel better. The photo ops and the autographs are so lightning quick that my addled brain never stood a chance of explaining it all well.

My brother is the one who commissioned this for me. He was actually contacted by the show to get the velvet painting of Jesus and the Semi that you can see in Kubrick's trailer in "Bad Day at Black Rock", buuut... he never got his act together enough to call them back. They obviously found another source for velvet art. Oh well.

azewewish March 31 2009, 22:13:37 UTC

Okay, that's pretty hysterical. *g*

What?!--Lies! indignico April 1 2009, 06:03:39 UTC

Sorry to actually interrupt you, call you names--No. Bad Sister!--then contradict you, and in all front of your friends and all while I've been eavesdropping on you ( ... )

The painting wasn't meant to be taken seriously?
Now I feel just silly with my Jared photo op pillowcase.
It too was meant to be poking fun at myself but somehow it turned into true love.

gilligan2755 March 31 2009, 23:57:44 UTC

Maybe I need to turn the photo op into a pillow case too! That's a great idea!

pippinlove April 1 2009, 01:04:14 UTC

Careful the pillowcase is a slippery slope of insanity.
You WILL find yourself saying, "Good morning" and "Good night" to it.
AND turning it over while getting dressed. Or not.

Funny you should say that... I'm actually a trifle worried that hanging that thing in my bedroom might be a little too unnerving. It'll seem like they're glaring down at me ALL THE TIME.

zannes April 1 2009, 00:23:44 UTC

The painting was genius and you know it! People thought you were the next Picasso. The Boys had reason to be befuddled with their obvious drinking problem.

Kidding!

gilligan2755 April 1 2009, 00:30:36 UTC

Are you kidding about the genius that is velvet art or the boys drinking problem? :)

zannes April 1 2009, 00:33:25 UTC

The painting, of course. Their drinking problem is legendary. I have quotes! Hee.
