Smudge

More pictures of different artwork I've made.  This was one of the 'in-progress' images for a 16 x 20" still life drawn with vine and compressed charcoal.
And the finished product!
I wish everyone a very Happy St. Patrick's Day!  Since it's a weeknight and I'm home I'll be doing absolutely nothing to celebrate, but I'll try to wear green.  I think Saturday one of my brother's and his family is coming for corned beef and cabbage.  Does your family partake in this culinary tradition?  Or do anything annually for the day?  We don't have any Irish roots but I bet it's a point of pride for many.  One day I'll make it to Ireland to celebrate.
And I hate to gloat, but I love being able to sleep in until eleven thirty without any true commitments for the day.  Yesterday I did some hardcore shopping and cooking, soon to be another post topic :).  I need to go for a run and work on some more homework, but it's sixty degrees out and I plan on enjoying the sun.

Cheers!

!! I have wanted to cook so badly this week. Maybe when the boyfriend comes home from college we'll cook. Until then, Chinese it is.

Hope you're having a good day!

Grrrrr stupid blogger, not posting my comments... mumble grumble...

I totally and completely forgot it was St. Patrick's Day actually. We do absolutely nothing to celebrate. So... yeah, haha. Sleeping in is always wonderful, except I haven't gotten a chance for almost TWO WEEKS. It's been torture. Shopping and cooking sound quite enjoyable too, though. :D
