"Drink from his Empty Eyes..."

It's quarter 'til eleven, and I am beat. The funny thing is that I'm thinking of starting a painting of...something. I just feel like painting.
I worked on a sleeve today of a long-time client. We are so close to finishing it, it's not even funny. I think he might have all of an hour left on it. I had to cut the session shy of completion because I had another appointment. Oh well, I'll be able to get better pictures when various bits of his arm are not covered in angry redness. It's going to be slammin'!
My 6:00 appointment was kind of interesting. I think I can attribute my want to paint to her. She had goldfish and a capricorn head tattooed in an oriental ink painting style. It was defintely not your everyday tattoo, that's for sure. I enjoyed the challenge, I think it came out well, and she was beside herself. I got pictures, but she'll be back in a few weeks for some healed ones.

I got new crank arms for my moped, and now it doesn't look so ghetto. The again, having bright shiny chrome sparkling against a rusted blue frame isn't making it look like gold, either. Meh, what the hell. The Snark may not be pretty, but it's loyal, dependable, and more fun than it looks! Yes, I did use the word 'loyal' to describe a machine. Once you ride, you will understand.

I'm sitting here reflecting on the last 2 weeks, and I feel like everything is right back where it needs to be. I am a firm believer that history repeats itself, and will continue to repeat until the lesson is both learned and appreciated. I can honestly say what I have experienced in the past year is all new to me. I can honestly say this must be a new lesson, that I have progressed. I can honestly say that for all the grey weather, I am grateful for the rain.

Hmmmm, my paints call to me. Time for some artist delight! G'nite, y'all.
