and it's coming along

i didn't get to the art supply after all but we'll do that this weekend, as well as pick me up a cordless phone.
i did see my friend juliet, and i did start more color work drawings, as well as a blue malabrigo hat for bernie
today is walking in the AM, (ducks are out and i found frozen eggs, so later i have to run around and see where they are hiding them.....)
then laundry, dishes and drawing

i got to see pictures of snowy, there is some confusion as to his age.
he looks like thaddeaus with blue eyes
my boy is going to be upset
my boy is also growing in fur finally again, he's got his little 'man curls' in (curls on his chest, look like a man's hairy chest...and makes us laugh)
he's definitely fuzzy now
thank goodness

ok drawing wise, i am redoing that duck painting, with the three ducks.
i masked the sketches over with a liquid mask, laid in the background and then started to work on the ducks themselves
i found that the liquid mask pulled up the surface of the paper, so i need to get a new liquid mask. it's a good thing we didn't go to the art supply store yesterday, as i only found this out last night, which means i had to go over the weekend ANYWAY, for a different mask
there are two i am going to try. a clear mask and a white mask.
today is friday so we could go to the art supply store tomorrow if this predicted storm isn't bad
i am still in search of a plot for the duckies....
i just record their daily lives (if you follow the blog, first off thank you, oh thou intrepid soul, and second...you know how their daily life is....just little funny vignettes interspersed with worm hunting
and poop......... tons of poop from my beloved little fertilizer machines....for the garden
so anyway, i have a bit of time right now before i leave to go walking with 'the girls' (jen and lesley, who are actual human girls, without webbed feet or feathered butts)

so i am off to the drafting table
