I am trying to catch up on a lot of things, like finish up the art I need to, so I can be available for nurse duty. I can't wait til he feels better again! He has to be off the ibuprofen that works for him for this week prior to surgery, so I know he is gritting his teeth more than usual now.
I need to clean the house for the company and 'help' that will probably be coming in. Groceries are bought, Laundry is done. Today is a chilly, cloudy, breezy fall day, and after having breakfast with my siblings and siblinginlaws, doing a little shopping and a farmers market, we are both kinda crashing at home for a bit right now.
He has been flipping between the ball game, (last one of the season) and the Nascar race, and then I hear him snore. Next I know, he's flipping the channels again.
Actually, once I get the Baby Shower present done, I think I am done with art until further notice. Although I may sketch a bit in the next few days.
I started the baby shower project yesterday. I dragged out my airbrush, blew the dust off of it and started painting. I am using the airbrush because its going to be a canvas hamper for the nursery. Because its collapsible, I didn't want to put thick paint that may crack off one day, not that I expect them to collapse it on a regular basis, but because its so movable.
Well, airbrushing takes practice. I love airbrushing, but I haven't practiced it in a while. I am now at the point that I either have to patch and make what I have done, WORK, or go out and buy another hamper and start over. I stopped when I got frustrated so getting back to it will take a bit of effort. Cleaning up messes isn't as fun as creating!
I guess I can leave this blog with an artistic thought though:
Stay tuned!
