September 27th

Today has been a lazy, but sort of productive day so far. Well, first off, I went to the studio yesterday and did some more work on the banner, which is now nearly done. Also, afterwards Dianne, Agata, Aisha and myself went to see Super 8 at the local theatre (Just came out in theaters here!). So, we bought tickets for the 8:10pm show, got some beer (as you can bring beer into the theatre) and enjoyed the movie. However, halfway through the film, the movie abruptly stopped for the intermission. We found out the folks sitting ahead of us were from California and are architectural students during this time.

Right, so today. Agata, Dianne and I went for a run early this morning, I ate a huge bowl of special K and then went to a local park to paint. While listening to the "Tech Guy show with leo Laport" and sitting on that park bench for a good couple of hours (or more?) I finally made a Plain Air painting I'm at least moderately happy with. Also skyped with my friend Annyen.

I include an image of the banner update here.




Here I include some pictures of some small watercolours I've made in the past week.






The weather has been much nicer this week then before. I'm guessing closer to mid/low twenties. We had a great thunderstorm a couple of days ago. I could hear the thunder brewing from the north went I left the cottage (or my house). It accompied me the whole walk to the studio (of which I was expected to get drenched along the way, but thankfully, the rain held off until well after I finished the 30min walk to the studio). I did a small painting and some drawing in someone elses studio room out their window, as I watched the arcs of lighting light up the sky.

Now I'm going to head to the studio to do some more painting. Work work work.
