A Potato Day

So, not much going on I suppose. Grandpa came home from the hospital today after having his surgery on Friday, so he's recovering well. Other than that I've been playing with the doggies and painting. This year for the state fair I'm entering four pieces of artwork in the Youth Art section, which are all still somewhat in the midst of creation. Ah, darn you procrastination. Hopefully I can get them done in the four days I have left before taking them over... I suppose we'll find out. I mean, summer is really flying by, I can hardly believe we're already at July 21st. Enjoy every moment people, lest you regret how your summer was spent.

And now for some artwork(if you could call it that):

This first painting is of my cousin Kelsey. (I took the original reference picture when she was asleep on the bus back from Chichen Itza in Mexico) It's sort of pop artsy don't you think? I'm debating whether or not to paint the background another color, if I did it would probably be a very light lime green or light light pink/purple.


This painting, took me a LONG time to make. The heart is a complicated thing you know. ^_^
I quite like how this one has turned out.


Then there is this painting of a house, it's kind of sloppy, but I think it looks cute.
