Champions and Finished Painting!!


Okay first of all the Cyclones won the Kelly Cup and I was there! Go Cyclones! It was a great game, very intense. I definitely need to get season tickets for next season.

Second, I finished my first pin up painting tonight. Well, honestly, I'll probably mess with it some more once it's dry, but it's pretty much done. I'm titling it Estelle at the Train Station. I'm not sure why Estelle. The main character in the book I'm writing is named Estelle and she has short blond hair. I like the name Estelle I guess. Estelle and Stella. Stella is my one and only hint to my super secret project hinted at in previous posts. Good luck figuring that one out.

Day four, five?

"I said do you speak my language? He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich." It is definitely late and I've had one too many perhaps because I am now listening to Down Under by Men at Work for the fifth time in a row. It's so catchy!

Tonight has been quite productive. I have most of the background done on my first pin up painting. Once it is completely dry I am going to add steam on top of what I have done. (It's a train by the way.) My friend expressed concern that the background would take away from the pin up but I think the cloud of steam will help that, and I like the idea of a non boring plan background. I still have a lot to do, but I'm getting there slowly but surely.
