monday's portrait

i was going to make a portrait inspired by klimpt/moreau and talk about how certain time periods influence me, but instead i drew some princess time.

today i tried to watch kiss me kate, but i got like 30 min in and had to stop. its so hard to watch shakespeare anything when you've already seen it once, or twice, or 3 times. (i've watched taming of the shrew at least 6 times).

sunday's portrait

here's sunday's portrait!

maybe i should draw my glasses some day.

homebody

today is a simple and quick portrait because its one of those rare weekends where i actually leave the house. yay! also this looks even less like me than most. I: hmn

dressie dress

i bought this dress last summer and i really love it. but i haven't worn it yet this year since when i do think about wearing it, its either too cold or i need to shave my legs. considering the next week is going to be warmer, i'll probably end up wearing it soon. yay dresstimes!

newwwwww bangs

well not really. today (or yesterday the 9th) is my nana's birthday. she's 77 this year. so we had a family dinner at her favorite mexican restaurant.   before me and my sister drove down to the dinner, I took it upon myself to cut my bangs. they were getting ridiculously long.

it even inspired today's portrait. and there are two things to notice. 1. i always think i'm thinner than i actually am (unless i'm in a dressing room. then all hope is lost and i feel like a killer whale). and 2. I like my bangs short. like almost half way between my hairline and eyebrows short.


bonus realization: 3. the font for my post titles is perfect for today. it totally makes you read it with teen girl squad intonations.

 dear interwebs.

today i watched TWO baseball games. I also watched a whole mess of TLC (gypsy weddings AND extreme couponing).  I also made dinner tonight. i should have taken a picture. it was delicious. i made boneless skinless chicken breasts that were both flavorful and moist. quite a feat.

8 days of portraits. i'm pretty impressed that i've been able to keep drawing these despite my own laziness. its interesting to see that 1. i cant draw myself properly and 2. that my style tends to vary from day to day.

i guess i really should stop being so lazy and scan some sketches tomorrow. but hey i did say tomorrow!

also, watching that tlc show about travellers/gypsies makes me understand a part of hot fuzz better. bonus!

the newest host of the view

sometimes i spend my night thinking about how nice it would be to go to sleep early and actually wake up while it's still morning. but then i remember the view is aired in the morning. and then i hate each woman who hosts that show just a little more as my face contorts into a very serious scowl.

today's portrait is a tribute to my hate for the view.
