One of those days





















I am having one of those days that no matter how much hair gunk I put in my hair it doesn't feel or look like I have anything in it...and then I keep adding more...and then all of a sudden it looks like my hair is all gross...

I hate that, for those of you who don't know what I look like, I have long wavy/curly hair...all depending on the weather. Sometimes my hair is quite beautiful, other times it is this bad combination of fuzzy and flat...AT THE SAME TIME....

come on, how bad can it be....so today it is a fuzz flat day, that god it is a sort of bum day when nothing is going on, or else I would be mortified.

I know, I know....I'm vain and this is only interesting to me...you see I could literally blog about my hair everyday...much in the same way that I used to blog about the geese that followed me around.

That sucked.

ok so last night was "The Globes" it was spectacular (for me) I love, love, love award shows, I go crazy for them in the same way that my spectacular bubs (keith) goes nuts over old Lone Ranger episodes and anything in the Charlie Brown/Peanuts family.

Oh, speaking of Keith....I forgot to mention this yesterday....another reason why he is the coolest of the cool...he got me a special present as a Congrats on being a Stay At Home Artist...he bought me The Complete New Yorker on DVD-Rom

AAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH

so cool, I can honestly say that just having it in my apartment has really classed up the joint.

So, last night I watched the "globes" while giving an ongoing DVD style commentary to poor Keith who was sitting on the couch trying to read some comics, I blathered on and on about Jack Nicholson being drunk when it started, to Tom Hanks being strangely bloated, to Brad and Angelina and how I wish they could adopt me and I could be Jennifer Gordon-Jolie-Pitt. I talked about the clothes and how Helen Mirren has remarkable breasts for a woman her age...I then went on and on about Justin Timberlake and Cameron Diaz...by the time I started to make mention of his "Movie Bubs" (Reese Witherspoon) he had enough...and went to sleep.

I watched the entire thing while painting, I did a wonderful collage that was inspired by an Anne Sexton Poem, which was called "I Mend What Another Will Break", I listed it today in my shop, and it sold almost immediately, which was a wonderful surprise. I also have an art card on reserve for the same person.....she also bought some other pieces so she will be receiving the free collage!!

Don't worry though, I will be giving away another collage with my 600th item sold, this is still a little way off....

The images I have shown today are of the collage that sold right away....because I so badly wanted to show it off again....

I am also showing another collage I posted last night, it is very dreamy and romantic I think and it is called "Queen of the Summer Hotel".

Remember....use the code VALENTINE07 and you will get 20% and quite possibly be the lucky person who gets the free collage!

Until tomorrow loves.

xoxo

Hey Jenn. Thanks for hearting my latest creation! I am with you on the hair thing - I get that frizzy/flat thing - bad hair days are BAD hair days. lol

We don't get to see the golden globes here unless it is on pay TV - I definitely watch for the glamour!

Gillian, thanks for the hair support, lol.

It will be better when I can just be all hermit like in my house, then I won't have to worry too much about my hair, though then it will probably look great all the time.

I will have to worry about getting shot though...

this is my glamorous life.

I'm pretty impressed that you can paint while watching t.v. Way to multi-task :)

OMG! I love those pieces. How beautiful! No wonder the one sold so quickly. You are so talented. If I painted while watching tv, it would look like a monkey painted it. lol.

Oh you are too kind....


I can collage and paint while watching tv...but it slows down my process to a glacial pace...

small sacrifice I think
