I've Been Tagged

I must admit I am pretty lame socially but Robyn has tagged me. The rules are to list 5 weird things about you or your pets. Since I'm extremely weird that's pretty easy:

1) My rabbit Penelope will claw the carpet and chew on the woodwork when she wants me to get out of bed and feed her
2) I used to live in this huge house on campus with all these boho hippies. I think there were 35 people that lived there in the 3 years I was there. One guy would make herbal concoctions all day and another housemate mistook his 'petroleum-free petroleum jelly' for salad dressing! We heard this girl used to live there who was a fruititarian, and ate only fruit. Then she changed to a breathetarian! I could go on all day!
3) I drive an 84 Caprice classic my cousin gave me. It has no headliner, the windshield wipers don't work, there is duct tape around the radio, which doesn't work anyway, bashed up fender from when I hit a guardrail while yakking on my cell. The latest thing is the driver side door won't open and the window won't roll down, which means I can't go to drive thru's any more! Oh yeah and it leaks when it rains.
4) Steinway, my other bunny, will flick his back paws in the air when he's disgusted with me. It's his way of saying 'talk to the hand'.
5) I speak in tongues and 'run the aisles' at church.

Round 2 Entry

Must have spent 8 solid hours working on these. They went through more reincarnations than the Dali Lama! A lot of the versions were pretty ugly but I find that if you keep pushing eventually you will get to something that feels right.

Went and bought one of those Dover clipart books - now they come w/CDs so yay, no scanning. That's how I got the little scrolly thingies. The pink one was actually this stock photo close up of a ceramic jar - it had all this cool crazing. Also an overlay of lace and a boatload of blending modes.

The problem with Round 2 is all the entries look great so I don't know how the judges are going to make a decision!

Scrapartist Apprentice - on to Round 2!!!!

Steinie is a Star

My artist friend Kathie McCullough who I met thru E-bay just loves Steinway. I think this is his 4th or 5th painting! I own two and they are spectacular.
