Colors of Life (pass the wine)
Last night I was way out of my element. I was asked to join the "Colors of Life," an art auction and estate sale to benefit a hospice foundation.
They parked my beat up old Saab next to new BMWs, Caddies, Lexi. I was in my best pair of pants while they wore fine linen suits. It was a...

Hey, just wanted to say thinks for voting for my lady, very cool of you to do. 
its_weaselle:
yeah, my beast of a dog is a purebred belgian malinois. i'd never heard of them before until this particular one that needed a home before he was shipped off to the shelter. (he had been staying temporarily at a dog grooming place where a friend worked). his ears are real scrappy lookin'. everyone asks what happened to them....lol. poor thing.
i don't really know if it's technically bat season, but my friend had asked the pest control guy or something because my husband had just checked around her house a few weeks ago for hornet nests. and no bats were around then. so apparently the bats are getting ready to migrate and/or fattening up for hibernation.
and i've just had a small freshwater tank for a few years. but i'd love to go saltwater one of these days. that live rock is really cool.
and tight communities in WI???? you gotta be kiddin' me........
actually it is sad. i had a lady want some commissioned work and she was worried about price. she had a million $ property in door county. LOL! and i have participation in a charity event coming up too, if everything works out.

3:30 in the morning & I hear... fllthp, fllthp, fllthp, fllthp... What the hell is that? Go out into the hall... nothing. But it is a bit louder. I go downstairs in the living room and there is a bat circling around the room. So, what the hell am I supposed to do now? I open up the front door. Kahlo...

where did you get a pharaoh hound? (i'm in WI too and just curious....LOL) we kind of wanted to get one eventually.

hahahaha, here i was hoping you'd tell me there was a secret breeder in WI. i got my malinois before he was shipped off to a shelter. he was really skinny too. people thought he was part greyhound. but i suppose it was better than people thinking i was the one who starved him.
and the other day i drove out to Neenah to help a friend who's having bat problems too, it's apparently bat season.

Planning out a tattoo: G.B. deNavarro - my dear friend, my fellow artist - always followed the totem of the crow. It is found in many of his paintings. Mine - the elk, featured in my best work "The Drowning Elk." I want to see the two totems, embraced by a woman. Perhaps even Bjrk's face between the two of us?
I'll have to do...

Where did you go to school?
wow... it has been a long time since I've written anything on here... what is new... I'm thinking about opening up a gallery here in Appleton. There is nothing really upscale or formal around here and I've talked to some artists who would be interested. And then I can quit my day job.
Oh, and what the fuck, Jordis Unga is hot!

Hey, I just got back from spending some time in Boston. I get access to a beach house during the summer, and it is hard not to take it up.
I did four paintings out on the ocean - it is always fantastic to be able to recreate the world before me. It can use so many improvements, it seems.

5am comes way too early, but that's the time little kahlo wants up, so my day starts then also.
it was a rather domestic day: painting the dining room & finishing off the pond. all of that busy work that i absolutely hate doing. at least i avoided having to do the laundry.
n. 46 of the new american paintings. some good work in the...

the tequila is on the bottom shelf behind the bar.
don't feel guilty, do it because you want to. some people make doodles and call it art.

so i'm not completely cut off from the sg world...
today the rains poured down. it was blunt, dark, and powerful. i found myself in the yard looking up into the sky and howling back at ms. nature and her threats. being with nature and rebelling against force. i was drenched, but satisfied.
same storm, but an hour and a half later. darboy, local city,...

oh i'm not moving far. staying in the same building even. HAHAHAHA. it should be a super easy move.
yeah, freshwater is enough upkeep. salt is even more. but soooo pretty.......i don't even know what i'm going to do with the new tank. it's an addictive hobby.
hahahaha, i have bats living in this building. in the evening you can sit and watch them fly out. i've only had one get in and fly around though. that was last summer. i caught it and let it outside. it was cute.
