Tah Dah.

It's done. (I'm guessing around 85 hours put into it) It's submitted.

It's going up for silent auction. 

%50 goes to the cause and %50 goes to me.

Min. bid I started way lower than my normal pricing to get interest.

Who knows how it will go? It might not even sell. It's always up in the air with things like this. 

Show doesn't open until May. 

Its been on FB getting lots of love. It's been chosen by our local paper to promote the show.

It will be in print and on the racks this next Monday.

It's already gotten good response.

It feels good.

On to thinking about my next piece. I'm not going to bore you with the steps of that one though. I'm entering my colleges student show in the next week with some recent paintings and painting towards upcoming shows in June and in October. Hopefully I will find some others that I want to be involved in also. 

Marriage Equality Painting Day 6

I'm not feeling great about the green. Two closest seats and back bench seat I changed the green and haven't touched the middle seats again. I want more of a grayish green. Just not mixing right. Hmmm.

Frustrating.

It seems right when I'm doing it and when I sit with it a while it feels a bit yucky.  At least I'm getting the shapes dialed in, I guess?
I know nobody gives a rats ass, but this is what I got for now to share. Better than nothing.

Trip Talk

On the way home from our weekend trip we talked about the different things that we had just encountered at the nude resort. It was so very interesting how people broke down into clicks. Not really in a bad way (not like high school), but I could see where everyone after being there for just a short time fell into a niche. There were the hardcore swingers, the soft swappers, the single ladies, the nudists, voyeurs and the exhibitionists. Then there were a handful of us that really didn't know where we fit in, but we were a part of this whole dynamic.

In our relationship it is new that we are talking to each other about the attraction to others. I don't think hubby realized that he isn't the only one looking at a pretty girl walking by. I think both sexes can be attractive and some more than others and not just always in a physical way.

We discussed whom we found to be nice or sexy or just sleazy. Also we talked about who we were attracted to, guy or girl. There were people we befriended, but not necessarily attracted to. Then there were others we did hang out with that we did find a certain comfort level/ attraction. It was actually kind of refreshing to me that we could put that out there with out a jealousy factor coming into play. It's just such a wonderment to me how some people are super nice and you would want them as a friend and others are as equal but there is an interaction that turns into an attraction. Does that make sense?
