A tight squeeze. gouache 6 x 8
While painting this I thought, this is me (& many) heading into spring, after too many scones this winter! Weee - Pull!
Really though, my pants are feeling a bit snug and in a couple of weeks - I'll be in shorts! Note to self: knock it off chubby.
Positive thinking & Canadian weather anticipations. It's been enjoyable re creating these tiny Pooh treasures, although they are more or less warm up paintings, they stimulate the mind for bigger adventures & projects & make sweet tiny gifts.
There is still lots of snow here.. it's melting and becoming a little slippery - we look forward to muddy paws!
Ryan Reynolds is opening major studio in Markham, about time. Hollywood North with some Canadian Niceness -Eh!
I am a fan, I will admit... I watch everything he is in, just because he is in. Ryan Reynolds is pleasing to the eye and a nice guy. I can't think of anyone else that I'll watch - just because they are in a movie. I watched one recently & I was a little disappointed that it had to get gross/rude/stupid - how ever you want to call it with one of the other characters being a 'porn star'... they took it too far and almost ruined the movie- why add bullshit -for shock value? Im sick of it. Shock value usually means it's a shitty story, that won't succeed on it's own.. I told a few to watch the same film and two commented 'that one scene'... -made them just turn it off. Too bad, it got better after that bull but I get it, I too almost turned it off.
We want to have the senses entertained & educated (I do anyhow), not assaulted.
Trudeau is assaulting Canadians enough as it is lately.
Reading about Ryan Reynolds family life, beautiful, talented wife & kids.. I'm very happy for him, them, it appears there are still some genuine, caring, talented people in the industry & I'm thrilled they will definitely be creating some amazing Canadian inspired content. - in Markham, go figure Eh!
Time to paint & watch snow melt.
