Chicken Little is 7 months old today,
and the rain and wind that marked his birth has returned full force. In fact the gusts were strong enough that my
exuberant dog turned tail at the sliding glass door this morning, having to be
forcefully pushed outside for her morning constitutional . I was glad my own day’s activities did not
include any outdoor adventures. As I was
able to complete my mural panels yesterday!
Yay me! I know I started them before Chicken Little
came around, but spending time in the winter inside that unheated, tin walled, dirt floored basement wasn’t
really high on the priority list as the weather entered sub-zero
temperatures. But I’m done now.... three full panels of jubilant sea life
gathered in bright colours and awkward brush strokes.

I gathered up my supplies.... and
stashed them in the back of my car for my next painting adventure!!
“What is the next adventure?” You ask....
well the the paints from the
mural panels are being appropriated so that I can paint a series of completely
different panels... these ones being the panels that will grace the float of
our local Arts Council in our community “Seafest” Parade. The
Float... hmm so what will the float look
like.... well I think it will look suspiciously like -
- My Car! Yes the panels used to be designed for a flat bed truck.. but
apparently these are hard to come by these days and turns out roof racks make
great places to tie plastic panels on to one’s car. I have no idea what this will look like when
it’s done but I’ll try to post some Photos!
Wish me luck.
