some are blue. some are pink.



man.
this nutball painting was such a thorn in my side.

but now it's done.

and it has a kangaroo on it, so i'm happy.

12" x 19" on wood...acrylic, mixed  media hoardy type stuff, stickers, encaustic medium, angst

i have gotten 2 blog awards.  

i'm not sure what they are, but i liked getting them.

i think i'm supposed to tell you stuff about me.
who the hell cares?  i'm going to do it anyway.

it's been awhile since i've done a list here.

1.  art journalling might not be so bad (sorry.  hand me that crow pie now)

2.  stuff i am addicted to:
chapstick
marmite
wine
(surely there is more)

3.  i dyed 6 of my dreadlocks. three are hot pink.  three are blue.
wait.

how the hell did i not tell you sooner?  i did it many days ago, and that's big news to me.

4. chibi has gas today and it's Really disgusting.  
i know that we are all convinced that our dogs have worse gas than all of the other dogs, but i want to settle this right now.
chibi's is the worst.

5. i caught one of my cats eating a piece of glass.

you read that right.
he was eating glass.

The face is great! I love the expression, and the weird pointy hat with the kangaroo.

Gina said...

Glass!!!! What was on it? Or...What was it on??? That cat is mental haha!
Love the pointy headed portrait :D, and marmite, and have wine already :D XXX

What a gorgeous painting!!! I so adore this piece. The colours are just up my street. Great that you saw your awards I had been too busy to tell you about them. I didn't really know what to do with them myself. I hope I did it right. Hope the cat is ok and the gas part is a daily occurrence here but I am not sure if it is the dogs....

So now we want to see pics of your new colored dreads...of course we are interested in you! You are our life...no I have a life of my own...it's just not as exciting and colorful as yours :0)

he kinda has a jester thing going on, just pops this does, poor dog, poor you, strange cat, although I have a cats just appear to be eating things like glass but actually they just were rolling it around in their mouth not really swallowing or biting really hard, hope it ends well, congrats on the awards ,

This is a fun one! I love the depth to the eyes. Great expression.

Cats will eat almost anything. Except dogs. Dogs will eat anything, including cats.

Do you think it got any glass in him before you caught him(or her)? My dominant cat eats all the hair lying around from the other one....it totally grosses me out....that and the impending hairballs that sometimes I don't see in time and squish into....I really hate cats on those days...

I like this jester/harlequiny devil girl...hehe....the expression is perfect for the content, methinks!

Y'know, I don't think I've ever once smelled cat gas.....loving cats again :D

Sunshineshelle said...

Oh YES a kanga :) LOVE kangas!!! Actually love the bits without the kangas too :) OK Your list... I'm worried you had blue & hot pink dreads & had left it until NOW to share this vital information???? What the hell??? Maybe the toxic gases from Chibi are to blame, can't be the wine, wine is good 4 U, or is that vitamins?? Oh Well, as always you rock my world you colourful babe... I think I will send you Vegemite one day, now I have seen a kangaroo here... can you send food in the post?? You can taste it, or lather it over your face, or throw it in the trash... I LOVE Vegemite... but it's OK because I'm Aussie, my Scotish hubby HATES LOATHS DETESTS & DOESN'T UNDERSTAND MY LOVE AFFAIR WITH (whoops I'm shouting) this jar of salty blackness... once (or twice) I have just unscrewed the yellow lid stuck my finger in down to the second knuckle & sucked it off... lot's of Vitamin B so goes with any wine, maybe a chilled white would be best (??) Decisions decisions...

I love the pointy jester hat and all the floaty flowers. Just a very wonderful face too!

Tracey Potter said...

This is such a fun painting Amy, I love the flowers in the background and the way you have done the face. Wonderful.
