Chalk the Block went okay. my drawing was nothing spectacular, but pretty good. Really, my biggest problem was placement -- I was wedged between two 10 x 10 ones, and mine was 6 x 10 horizontal and therefore closer to the curb (while I chose the size, I didn't choose to be between two big ones)... AND I was next to the one that won People's Choice.

AND IT WAS A PUPPY.

You stand no chance when you're next to and smaller than the puppy. Particularly when seemingly everyone has children to whom they are describing each piece. "And here are some musi-- OOH HONEY LOOK AT THE PUPPY! DO YOU SEE THE PUPPY?!" The puppy was in the newspaper today. So yeah, I was slightly invisible.




the whole thing.


my favorite part of it. I think because of the reflections. EXCEPT THE BLACK-BLACK ON THE LIGHTING INSTRUMENTS DRIVES ME INSANE. They were an afterthought, because just beams on bricks looked off to me, but I didn't realize how much darker they were. Argh.


I actually did this first, and it is why I could only fit four of them. The plan was five musicians, but...


The last one I did. You can tell because it's sloppy -- accidently put the lines across the front of the keyboards and then couldn't get rid of them. I also added another useless light beam just to make myself feel better about only having four people because four is an artistically bad number fsafhdsjklafhdsalfa.


In other news, my father and I were out on the motorcycle last night when we passed a building that has unfortunately decided to use its acronym for its sign. Whatever the company is actually called, the acronym is ARS. Obviously whoever owns it has never encountered anyone or anything British.

I saw you there! I was working the library's tent all day, but when I went over to say hi, you'd already left. :\

But I personally loved your drawing. I also loved the Wizard of Oz one, did you see that one? They had sparkles on it!

ack! I wish I'd known, I would've come and said hello, haha. I was so hot and gross I just wanted to get out of there, so as soon as I was done I split...

I saw that one, but I didn't see the sparkles. It had sparkles? o.o
