Quitting time ... I am about to tie my fidgety hands together ... I want to keep on painting until completion .. shoot me somebody ... I need to have some layers dry first PLUS Monday is calling ... why oh why is there as much paint on me as on the wall? SIGH .... My dearest son picked up without me even asking WOOT ... hold up .. he just hit me up for a few bucks LOL gotta love it ....  

I killed my hummingbirds mural with gesso and repainted an autumn/harvest wall because I woke up with the itch to paint in my fingers ... goofy much? LOL this is a rough unfinished draft ... I am hopping in the hot tub and then I shall see what new mess I can get into ... hmmmm thinking to ask my DD to do my mails ... she does an awesome job with the gel manicures and had the professional kit that I bought her... maybe I shall be so lucky ... she has been quite generous all weekend putting up with me LOL...

Yesterday I shared with others on my thread the progress of my mural .. I kept changing my mind and gessoing things out and re-doing and undoing ... still not satisfied ... the mural is not finished but I can't work on in anymore for tonight ...this is what it is looking like so far...

 Thank you Janet... I am still working on that pea**** ... I had to use my gesso quite a bit on that bad boy to modify it ... I still can't get him to look just the way I want him to .. but I will keep trying...

 Thank you Miss Calla! I had fun doing it ... now that was some workout ... everything on my body hurts in a good way ... that involved being on my feet... crouching... stretching... climbing up and down the stool ... and having fun doing something that I love to do ... paint...

Like I said yesterday I think it looks great, I think today it looks even better...I wish I could paint. They have a place here in town called Painting With A Twist, and apparently you can come away with a painting that you paint yourself that looks wonderful! A friend of mine and I are going to go one day and try it out!! You are very talented that's for sure!

 Ohhhhhhh please do try out painting ... it is awesome that you and your friend are planning to go ... it is FUN and the time passes and you don't even know it when you are so engrossed...

When I paint from head I have to hurry and get the vision on the wall before having a brainfart ... you know the kind where you put something down or go into a room to get something and can't for the life of you remember where it was or what you are doing there? I have been having those for so long now and I can't even blame surgery ... yup ..it has been that long LOL... So I wanted to get my mural or as much of it done before losing that mental picture ... there was an Autumn moon somewhere in there I just don't know where to put it...

 I had fun doing my wall.... it was an AWESOME WORKOUT too ... up/down/crouch/crawl/climb REPEAT LOL ... Monday's come so quick I am at work now ... and what is not pulled is pinched and what is not sore is bruised ... gotta love it ... and my mural still is not done but it is done enough for my daily picture for my digital empowerment journal A PICTURE A DAY KEEPS THE POUNDS AND THE INCHES AWAY.....

No time to mess with hair this morning ... it is Monday ... a busy day...
