...artist's block

Gah!!!!
I am having some real artist's block. Or something.
It is seriously driving me crazy and everything I try to do isn't really coming out how I want it to...it is awfully annoying.

I'll get something together and post it...soon.....!

I've been trying to do a lot more black-and-white watercolors off photographs....and I was doing this awesome photo of the Beatles, and it was all going great except for when I got to JOHN!
COME ON JOHN! WHY ARE YOU SO  FREAKING HARD TO PAINT?!?!?! AGGHHHHH.......



I'm fine, though. Soon I'll do a successful watercolor of some famous person. There are lots of possibilities and I can avoid John Lennon.

Japanese Treats

What a pathetic blogger I am!!
I don't even want to know how many day's it's been since Chapter Three cont'd.....
Well. I've been really busy, or something, and I just haven't gotten around to posting in a long loong time... (and every day I thought COME ON POST SOMETHING and then, always, some thing or another would distract me and then it would be the next day and I would think, COME ON POST SOMETHING! TODAY! And I didn't, and the cycle repeats itself. Also I have recently started to follow the blog of the artist Tommy Kane. Me: Wow! Tommy Kane posts something, like....every other day! And then.... Me: I used to do that..... :(

But I'm posting now!!! Yesss! Time to move on.

I have just received as a present (from Japan!)....a big box of weird Japanese treats!





I absolutely love the packaging. I think I might have to frame the yellow chick one. :)

Cheers!
