Turned on or turned off . . .

I’m sure that title got your attention!

Well, get your mind out of the gutter {because I know it is!} I didn’t meant it that way! But it sounds awful, doesn’t it?!? I kept saying to a friend that I’ve been turned on to painting so much this weekend that I can’t turn off. And we would bust out laughing. I guess I should have said “my switch” is turned on and I can’t turn it off! haha! Clearly, it doesn’t take much to get me tickled. Actually, I would say that I’m probably delirious! Saturday night, I didn’t got to bed till 5 am Sunday morning and then got up at 9. Then I did the same thing Sunday night – didn’t go to bed till 5 am Monday morning. Fortunately, my husband let me sleep in till noon Monday. I never sleep in like that – ever. But I just got on a roll and couldn’t put my paint brush down.

Like I said, “my switch” wouldn’t shut off!! And I think it is still in the “on” position now – but I’m going to force myself to go to bed. I just finished up another painting that has a cute mickey mouse surprise on it – something I will not do unless it is done tasteful. So, please no one ever ask me to just paint a Mickey Mouse on a canvas – I will surely tell you no. But this turned out cute and I’ll tell the back story when I get to that one on the blog – number 45, so be looking for that one.

I’ve had a few emails as to where I was at on the list, so I’m going to post an updated version. Remember, these are the ones that are left. If I have fully completed the order, it is deleted off the list. That means, your number will have changed if you are still on the list. BUT I will always reference you by your original number!

** working on them now!

For some reason, I feel like there are a couple more that should be checked off but i just can’t figure out who!

Because I hate leaving a post picture naked, here is a shot of Colin’s art. I always talk about one of my best friends, Krista. She is the one that takes all my professional pictures {because we all know I sure didn’t!} She had a baby several months ago. I gave her a canvas when we hosted her baby shower in November {yes, that long ago!}

I did not take a shot of it here at my house, but Krista got one once she got home. This one matches the Madras bedding from Pottery Barn Kids!

I now must muster up strength to go wash my face and brush my teeth. Although I’m tired, my fear of losing my teeth and wrinkles far exceed my exhaustion. Hopefully, I’ll post more art tomorrow!! Till then, good night.
