a co-worker/friend and i were talking of how she’s been wanting to take a painting class… she hasn’t done any art since middle school… so i suggested we have an art day… so we got together and muddled around with some art supplies that i had thanks to my generous sister, who donated to me an art box that someone had given her but for which she had no use, as she’s picky about her materials…
whew. that was a huge run-on sentence!
anyway, it was fun mucking around with the watercolors from the art box… i kept treating them like they were oils… which was kind of funny. Even K, who hasn’t painted in years, could tell that i was using the wrong medium for the type of painting i was trying to do… but until i have some more stability in my life (move into a more permanent living space) i can’t do oils… also, even then it may be difficult, since oils are so toxic…
