oh my goodness, i am SO irresponsible ... well, not really ... maybe i'm just a procrastinator! ... hmmmmm ..... i have 7 billion things i HAVE to do ... but instead i did art ... ha ... i'm feeling the joy ... and , luckily, i'm just carefree enough that i don't stress about things that have to get done .... and i do the things that feel right for me at the moment ..... and that meant bonding with my sharpies ....
am i being vague? here are the facts ... well, sort of ... i'm sure i'm one of the least factual bloggers ever ....
so, last night? had a grand party ... my book club was here for a dinner party and gift exchange ... it was grand ... i gave away this little piece of art as my gift exchange ... and i got a WAY groovy purse .... the last of my pals left after midnight ... i tidied til one-ish so that my kids would wake up to at least a normal breakfast table ... then.... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ... until seven, when i woke up with two kids in my bed and the sound of the garage door going up .... andy got home safe and sound from an overnight trip home from brazil ... yippeeee.....
i went to drew's fifth grade and we worked on this piece of art:
it is three feet square... stretched canvas .... last week the kids glazed papers: their own school work and dictionary pages ..... i laid it all out and took it in today ... and the fifth graders used sharpies to define the bits with some texture ... they made the green bit grassy and the sky swirly and such ..... and then, because i was in the sharpie groove (i ADORE sharpies.... have i confessed that addiction here before? it'll be on the test!) ... so, i finished up the other fifth grade art work ... the kids had glazed papers in shades of blue ... and yesterday cut out and glued down birds ....
the birds are each about two inches wide .... and i think the canvas is three feet long .... each child made a bird ....
hopefully these two pieces will sell well at the school auction .....
and now, onto my next thing .....
i'm having a christmas hoooooha tomorrow night too ..... but, rather than really do anything to get ready for it, i just need to keep the kids from touching anything ...or from making messes actually! ..... i could have done some prep work today ... but art called!! .... so tomorrow will probably be more about the grocery store than art .... oh well ... maybe i'll be irresponsible again tomorrow .... oh wait! i think there's a special pottery class tomorrow .... should i do the irresponsible thing and go raku an angel? or get ready for a party .....hmmmmmmmmmm .....
any bets?
