I’m staying home today. I don’t mind staying home, but I wouldn’t want to do it 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Right now, I know I will be coming across as a hypocrite. I like a challenge. I believe challenges are a great way to grow. They explore possibilities.
Every month, ART JOURNAL JOURNEY comes with a theme, or, as I like to use the term, a challenge. Quite a few times, I couldn’t come up with anything, or I was intimidated to take part. Or I could say I sat on my hands and did nothing. This month’s challenge is dots! I recall coloring dots. I’ve been trying to find a company that could make a custom-made dot-to-dot coloring book.
It is THURSDAY THIRTEEN. I’m going to tackle the letter L.
Lady...One of my distant cousins. On her death, certified, her occupation was a “Lady,” I sure wouldn’t call myself a lady. I swear. (A still life with a cherry bottle – unknown time – unknown place)
Leo... My youngest son's actual name is Leo. People ask me if he was born under the sign of Leo. No, he was born under the sign of Taurus.
Licorice... I like licorice. My mother didn’t care for it. When she was still in Nebraska. She found a whiskey bottle and sold it to the bootlegger. With that nickel, she bought a bag full of licorice. She ate the entire bag. Which made her sick. My Grandma Olive, my mom’s mom. If candy was brought in house. It was divided equally between all. My grandparents had 12 offspring’s.This happened before 1937.
Loud... I’m not a fan of super loud noise.
Lake Louise. I have been to Lake Louise up in Canada.
Love...It is something that can be looked at in different ways. I know it is real. (Girl with mandolin – Unknown time – Location Unknown)
Larry...There was a boy named Larry in my first-grade class. He and I would jump off a wood shed roof. I also have a cousin named Larry.
Lost...For me, being lost is nerve-wracking. I have never been seriously lost. I have, more or less, gotten my barring off.
Lambrain...Our elected President Trump called some person a Lambrain. Well, he should look in the mirror.
Liver...I like liver.
Lake...We have a lake and mountain peak called Long.
Lipstick. I would be out in public without makeup, which includes lipstick.
Louisiana...I have listed two books in my good read shelf under Louisiana. DIARY OF A MISFIT. And MIDDLE PASSAGE (Still life with a boar’s head – 1949 – Location Unknown)
I send an card to Poet. She pass out at Bingo, a week ago Thursday. She is home. I briefly talk to her husband Fleming in store. For some reason her blood pressure was off.
Today art movement is, CUBISM. When cubism is mention, I think of Pablo Picasso. EMIL FILLA who works I will be sharing. I’ve even done or should say play around with cubism.
Coffee is on.
I have never heard of the word lambrain. Perhaps he was trying to say lamebrain and messed up his English. Again.
ReplyDeleteInteresting L words and cool art!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about staying home. It's nice not to go out, but after a while, it gets old.
ReplyDelete...you have some neat art today!
ReplyDeleteMy blog, Loose Leaf!
ReplyDeleteI thought dot-to-dot was supposed to create a picture of something, but I can't see a picture in your version. I like licorice.
ReplyDeleteWe loved Lake Louise
ReplyDeleteYour colorfully painted point game is interesting! Of course there is a picture, thank you for being brave enough to take part, it's not that difficult! Lots of answers with the letter L, great! I can't sit inside all the time, I'm too restless! Have a happy weekend!
