I think I am consciously taking a break from drawing because I know if I don’t I will blow out pretty quick in school - but I should really get back to it so I don’t get too rusty.
Instead I foiled my dollies eyes yesterday. They look all pretty and sparkely now. But I burnt myself on the glue stick.
Still, it was a remarkably simple and cheap transformation: 2 bucks for glue-sticks at Walmart, 2 bucks for foiling papers at the Paper Place. Remarkable, when the dolls themselves ain’t cheap.
Which brings me to the fact that I’ve been oogling dollies again. I think I want an I love you, it’s true. At least she’s not tooooo very expensive. Maybe I’ll find a deal on Ebay someday.
Sigh.
We also saw Brick which was pretty… hmmm… what’s the right word… engaging? I would say entertaining - it was - but it was no shallow summer blockbuster. It was very involving. You have to pay attention to everything that’s going on. If you like film noir, or David Mamet or Memento, it’s probably up your alley.
We also rented Brazil, which I would say some of the same things about - except for it moved pretty slow instead of very fast. But I’m more than ok with that (I’m no MTV generation, short attention span girl - despite my ADD). Man I’m glad they didn’t cast DeNiro in Micheal Palin’s role. That would have been a disaster.
