Rainy Days

 Today was the most useless, pointless day i e had all summer.  It rained so i couldn't go riding.  Im kinda broke(saving for college so i put myself on a budget) so i couldn't go shopping.  So basically I woke up and surfed the web for a couple of hours.  I have become obsessed with the Wizards of Waverly Place and can't stop watching it.  After some relaxing hours of this i went downstairs and had some delicious Honey Nut Oatmeal.  Then came back upstairs and painted the background to my painting I'm working on.

I now hate making sunsets with acrylics once you lay the paint down and it dries its not like watercolors where you can put some water on it and mix the colors more.  When Acrylic dries you had better hope thats what you want it to looks like.  So now im discovering the joys of mixing to make orange and totally making it look like shit.  Oh well so far from what i can tell this will be one of my better pieces so lets hope i finish it before i leave for school.  

All this painting is practice for my 2-d art class where i will have to paint realism 2-D paintings. I am a abstract person so realism is not any walk in the park.

After working on some paintings i went out to feed the horses which was uneventful.  Then came home ate some awesome Pizza bagels...delicious.  Now the most eventful thing i did today that needed brain power was helping my sister pick out heels and why her dress needed a stomach belt.  so thats my rainy day tomorrow i get to babysit from 8-5 with a 7 year old who is horse obsessed.  I hope to god it doesn't rain!
