Chairs
As I was going through things in my studio today, I came across these sketches and the little painting. Chairs are one of my favorite subjects. They have so much character. None of these photographed well - the light is bad and to re-do all three of them - well, it's late. I make it sound like it's the pictures' fault, not mine. It's okay to blame things on inanimate objects, isn't it?This is the end of NaBloPoMo - or blog-everyday-throughout November, or National Blog . . . something. Of course, I'll continue blogging - just not every day. You'd all be really sick of my quantity-not-quality style. I really ramp up the quality the rest of the year, don't I?
This afternoon I went to the dollar store. When the girl rang me up, she didn't give me my change. I reminded her I had eight cents coming. She said "Okay", and rang up the next person who had 22 items. This was getting embarrassing, I'm standing there waiting for eight cents!!! It was okay, no one in the long line knew it was only eight cents - until she said something about getting mixed up because she was thinking about "her" eight cents, with a nod to me. I was not about to leave without it at that point - it's a matter of principle, right? ("Principle: A rule or belief governing one's personal behavior" - in the dollar store) And I would have had almost nothing to blog about. That was the excitement in my life today. What was yours?
