But, I'm all caught up now! Last night I went to a Fringe show, Mesmerize, with some lovely ladies both on and off stage. However... I realized after I left to go, that I hadn't actually painted yet, and I wouldn't likely have time when I got home. Oops! Sure enough, it was 11:30pm when I walked in the front door, exhausted, but happy... so I did not paint. A testament to how tired I was is that I did not even turn on the computer to update facebook! I'm addicted to facebook... so that really ought to say something. Anyway... this morning while my daughter was having an unorthodox nap time (daycare side effect) and the boys were off grocery shopping, I went down to get caught up.
I'd like to thank my friend Charlene, who was at the show last night... She suggested that I use the show as inspiration for the paintings. We're belly dancers, the show was heavy on the belly dance (yay) and so I did just that. Then, I liked the result so much I decided to do it all week! Good times! So far the painting from last night, "Mesmerize" (in honour of the dance show) and tonight's "Spotlight" are on 5x7 boards. I think I will likely stay with that size so as to keep the series uniform.
I hear my little girl stirring.... which is out of character for her... so I'll sign off now just in case. Have a great day off tomorrow and here's hoping we have some nice sunny weather for the long weekend! Good night!
Great idea! Can't wait to see them!
