It is disconcerting, though, when things turn up in the oddest places. Could be lack of sleep or, dare I even mention, "woman of a certain age" syndrome! But my husband is prone to this also, so don't know what his problem is! (I'm still looking for some fabric in a little brown bag purchased several years ago and last seen on my desk . . . . I'm blaming its disapearance on the resident ghost . . .) I usually look a mess - wearing old, already paint stained clothes saves the good stuff, but one gets odd stares from strangers when venturing out into public! I say "I paint" and leave it to them to figure out - ... houses" is my guess for their answer!! Get a good rest before you touch that painting again, it's too beautiful to mess up now!debwardarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05225105239355671724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-49471293514485138052011-08-20T08:59:43.658-02:302011-08-20T08:59:43.658-02:30Oh, Jeanette, it's scary to be getting this ti...Oh, Jeanette, it's scary to be getting this tired! Please take care and get some rest. I love the coyote and the size - I, too, like to know the sizes of things but find that someone listing it on their post is fine and gives me a good idea (not like being there to see it in person but you know whether it's big or small). Have a good - and restful - weekend.RH Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497161758269292809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-68048055797987364012011-08-19T22:00:31.081-02:302011-08-19T22:00:31.081-02:30Thanks Michael.

If I want a closer look I can then do so.<br /><br />My brain is frazzled this week so heaven knows what I'll do. :) As for Corrie, Britain is probably 6 or 7 months ahead of us in shows, we're still waiting for the tram wreck!<br /><br />Gary, some weeks it just bizarre how crazy it gets and as the weekend nears, I get more and more tired til I'll crash tonight and catch up again. Then I can do it all over again! <br /><br />I amuse myself at how forgetful I can be sometimes. I blame it on tiredness, getting older doesn't help the brain cells either.<br /><br />Jennifer, yes you're right, all artist's clothes have paint on them, except for the rare few. And I don't mind it, but really didn't want it on this particular sweater. Oh well, guess it will be a painting sweater unless it comes out. Turps applied and washed, but I haven't had a chance to go look yet and see the result.<br /><br />Tonight...sleep.......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzJeanette Jobsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08935974758134419990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-51701259422634087362011-08-19T18:14:48.829-02:302011-08-19T18:14:48.829-02:301. we are artists. our clothes can have paint on t...1. we are artists. our clothes can have paint on them and its normal ;p<br /><br />that coyote is pretty big, thanks for the shot of it :)<br /><br />really hope you manage to catch up on your sleep soon!!Jennifer Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528908250338974537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20414780.post-71520983228373625372011-08-19T15:05:53.807-02:302011-08-19T15:05:53.807-02:30Hi Jeanette,

Definitely time for night-night land!<br />I'm not sure it wasn't me who inquired as to the size of this painting. Though I'm not exhausted, my memory often is, so I can't be sure. Anyway, let me add my thanks for sharing this image in it's true scale. It's a fantastic work.<br />Have a restful weekend!!<br />Sincerely,<br />Gary.Gary L.

Art always looks so much better in the real world, where you can walk around it and view it from any distance!<br />Can't help with the cat food and mislayed coffee problems - do the same myself sometimes. To avoid problems with oil paints I use Artisan which washes out of clothing - if you're quick that is. Can't give you an update on Corrie - I've missed a few weeks of it too, and that's not normal behaviour for a Cheshire lad like me :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423986562925121890noreply@blogger.com
