day 69: paint

i love to paint. i'm not the greatest at it, but if something is bothering me, or i'm stressed out, or i just am bored, i like to do one of four things: a, pull out my camera and take shots, b, pull out my charcoals, pens and pencils and sketch, c, paint, or d, waste time on the computer. i would say i'm best at wasting time. which is really not good. but hey, we all have our things we're working on. and that's one of mine. so today i decided to paint. and i did. not a van gogh or picasso or anything amazing, but after i did, i felt awesome. and i smile at awesome.

day 60: audrey

Okay, I admit it. I have a little bit of an obsession with old Hollywood. Grace Kelly, Cary Grant, Jimmy Stewart, Katharine Hepburn, Gene Kelly, Doris Day, Gregory Peck, Audrey Hepburn, etc. You just don't really come by that kind of glamour anymore. I grew up watching films like "To Catch a Thief", "The Delicate Delinquent", "Arsenic and Old Lace," and others. The acting! The class! The glamour! Who couldn't love it? Which is why today I give you Audrey Hepburn. I've had an interest in her because she has quite an amazing history, and who couldn't love someone who said, "nothing is impossible-the word itself says 'i'm possible!'"? I found this awesome website that lists a whole lot of quotes from her, you can find it here: http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/692403.Audrey_Hepburn. I haven't checked out the rest of the website, so don't quote me on the rest of it. Anywho, I'm attempting to sketch the picture in the foreground of this photograph, the one in the back that you purposely can't see as much is my sketch...
