orange chicken

When I first saw this piece of orange chicken, I distinctly saw a "Poodle" however upon inspection of the photo, it just looks like a funky piece of orange chicken; I guess the joke's on me.

Pour Me a Glass

The packaging in our wine shipment.
Yes, please. Pour me a glass.
Or two or three.
It's been one of those weeks.

Mannequin at Christmas

(Did I mention that this is in our living room?)

Another Mystery Knob

So now we're doing work in the kitchen. Surprise, surprise, another knob sticking out the middle of the wall. It's been covered for years by the computer table.
Here's the mystery knob in the bedroom:

Speedo


See that guy in the green Speedo?
On the left center of the photo? He's talking to the lady in the red blouse?
He's a street performer.
Did I mention that it's December 4th?  In New York City?
Yup.

Rainy Smiles

Even though we fixed our roof and the rain no longer comes in in seven different places, rainy days can still get me down. So I went out looking for something about the rain to make me smile. Some plants and trees looked as sad, heavy, and droopy as I felt. But the succulents looked thrilled to be a part of it, holding the water in huge drops for as long as possible before they rolled down the thick leaves into a waiting pool near the stem.

Most advertising campaigns make me roll my eyes


...but this campaign caught my eye.
Clever.
Right on.

Stencil Chair

This chair is broken.

Every time I go to throw it out, I stop and put it back down. A few weeks later I see it and think, "Wasn't I going to throw that out?" and I start towards the trash again, only to stop and put it back down. It has inched it's way across the yard, closer and closer to the trash cans, but something always stopped me.

Now I know why I can't throw it out - what a great stencil. On what . . . I'm not so sure. But at least it's safe for now.

For Jeanie:


Where are My Shoes?

I wondered where my tennis shoes were.
For two days I wondered.

Painting

In my paintings lately, I have been using a lot of images with clothing. I love painting fabric. I love the shadows on his pant leg. This, I think, may be my next painting.
