I just got back from my aunt's house where I had a much better time than expected.

My cousin has a 2yr old little girl, and we gave her a box of children's art supplies.

She was bound and determined to use her new watercolors on her coloring book, but became quite upset when holes would appear in the wet paper.

So, I ran home and got some watercolor paper and a pack of construction paper.

Here eyes grew sooooo wide when she saw that paper came in different colors. It kind of made me giggle.

After some playing with the water colors, I told here that the colored paper was special because we could make dolls.

By here instruction, I made a princess, with 3 dresses, a table, bowl, cup, spoon and bed.

She busied herself, and I drew a dragon using an outline of my hand. At this point, she demanded I cut out the dragon so it could heat up the princess' food.

At which point it was decided that the dragon needed his own bed and she stated. "He needs a princess dress too!"

So, the dragon, which she plainly stated to the family was a boy, had to have dresses that matched the princess' and a pink blanket for his bed.


I then made a closet to hold all of the pieces so that it would be easier to carry.

To be honest, it was some of the most fun I've had in a long time.

I'm beginning to wonder if it was the one on one I enjoyed, or if I might enjoy teaching something like this to kids in general.

Taking a bit of a break to really focus on my art. I'm not as comfortable with digital art as I would like to be, so I'm taking the time to go through a small course and get better acquainted with it.


If anyone is interested in commissioning any of my 3D stuff (i.e. custom ponies, sock dolls, clay figures, knit or crochet item) I'll be glad to take it on, but anything digital will be put on hold until I can produce things of which I am more proud.

On that note, I know the holidays are coming up and money is tight for everyone, so I am offering art exchanges for others that may have trouble getting things together for the holidays.

If you are an artist that wishes to participate, let me know!

I've had "Tonight, Tonight" by Hot Chelle Rae stuck in my head all day. So, I came home and sang along with it for two hours straight until I felt like I was going to vomit. That seemed to get it out of my head.

Does anyone have any other solutions for when a tune gets stuck in their head?

Howdy everyone! I've had some people ask in the past if I will turn some of my work into T-shirts and hoodies. Well I've been shopping around and finally found a site that will work well for me.

Here's the link if anyone is interested.

Its a combination of artwork from all of my accounts together. I'm still updating it, so if you do not see the piece you want available, let me know, and I will be happy to get it up sooner!

Thanks everyone!!

Refer to title.

Well, today was utterly exhausting.
I'm pretty much down with a really bad cold, and what appears to be food poisoning. Still, I'm taking care of my parents' animals while they are on vacation. One of the big things is feeding the ducks and collecting the eggs. There are only three, and it usually isn't a big deal, but today it was not to be.

As usual, I walked out to the pen with three of the four dogs. Usually, they walk around the fenced in yard while I go into the smaller duck pen. The main door is a piece of plywood that is pretty much kept closed with a cinder-block. I go inside to feed these ducks and collect the eggs when Nibbles (The big male duck that nips at everyone when they walk in.) decides that my jeans looked pretty sexy.

He's nipping the legs per usual, but when I turned around to pick up the eggs, he gets a good grip on the jeans with his beak, then attempts to mount my leg. At this point, the dogs have figured out that they could nose open the door to the pen and walk right on in.

So, my mini dachshund, Buddy, noses in first and comes running up wanting me to pick him up, then, thinking I'm being attacked, tries to attack this duck that is 10x his size.
Now, I grab him up which puts me as having a barking wiener dog in one hand, a food scoop that I placed the eggs in the other, and a duck trying to make sweet love to my leg.

Then, my mother's golden retriever (Nova) decides he wants to look around the duck pen, while her 90lb Great Dane puppy (Mack) b-lines it for the food I just put out for the ducks.

I manage to shoo Nova out pretty quick, but Mack only turns away from the food and decided that trying for the eggs might me a better idea. So I am now, holding both hands above my head, snarling mass of fur in one, food scoop in other, playing keep away from what equates to a small horse while a duck is getting his groove on with my right leg.

I manage to move this one man circus, back towards the door, and bend down to put Buddy outside the pen, but this puts me low enough that Mack is able to stick his head into the food scoop, but he can't quite reach the bottom of it where the eggs are.I used this to my advantage to back him out of the pen while Nibbles continued his denim romance.

So, I am now trying to back out of the pen so that I can keep the dogs from getting back in whilst at the same time extricating nibbles from my leg with my one free hand. This is made a little harder since the talons on his webbed feet are caught in the small holes that they created in the fabric.

After a bit of wrestling, I managed to free myself and escape my feathered molester. This took at least 10 minutes out of my day and since it was around 95 degrees outside, I can safely say that it killed the precious little energy that I had to move around.

So, the lesson of the day is that Duck Rape isn't funny, if you're the one watching, there's a chance it's friggin hilarious.

Maybe I just worry about too many things too often, or maybe I'm not worrying about things enough.

There are things within my control, and things all out of control.

So lost in life that I have no choice other than to just drift along and go with the flow.

Left foot

If I were to have a superpower, it would be to make those around me happy.

I've always wanted a tail. (Prehensile of course.)

At one point in my life I believed everything that I read in books to be real. (Including fiction.)

SEX!

For being the most adaptable animal on the planet, we still lack wings or any sort of armor, and having a protective layer of fat can kill us.......

Where can I get more money?

When will I get that promotion?

Am I good enough?

Right Foot

If lobsters had been the dominant species, would they disable us with rubber bands, and keep us naked on ice until they were ready to cook us?

Do I have any actual talent?

Why are the voices in my head British today?

Breathe.


All of this goes through my head in a cycle of about once every ten seconds. People wonder why I have trouble thinking before I speak, trip while I walk, and randomly take large breaths.
