AnneLine Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) You've been profligate with those props again, ARFink. You are out. I can tell.... And I am EVIL.... cause I outed-you for being out. :evil: :brutebeast: Some say the glass is half empty. Some say it is half full. I say it's just enough water in the glass to make it easy to tip over, and just enough water to completely flood my desk. Like what just happened, right now. Oops. Now you are propless and under water. Sounds like ARFink imitating art imitating life.... Of course, I am the one with the computer nicknamed Lazarus.... and he's still in the tomb....

arfink Posted March 28, 2013 Author Posted March 28, 2013 Thankfully, all expensive electronics and pieces of artwork were not hit by the flood. Just some sticky notes, and the bottom of my paintbrush case, which is plastic and was safe. And the flood ran off the edge and landed on top of a roll of paper towels. How convenient.
AnneLine Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Some good spirit was watching out for you AND cleaning up after you. Lucky ARFink!
arfink Posted March 28, 2013 Author Posted March 28, 2013 Today I experimented with limiting my color choices down to 2 colors. It was interesting. http://weaselsgonarf.blogspot.com/2013/03/daily-draw-robot-ponders.html

AnneLine Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) :drool: But I thought you said somewhere that you could sing? Cook yes,... sing.... not from that I don't think. so... Edited March 30, 2013 by AnneLine
arfink Posted March 30, 2013 Author Posted March 30, 2013 Unfortunately we are not having tacos for dinner, despite my repeated insistence we do so. Oh well.
AnneLine Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) But after the Vigil.. the REAL celebration begins... and then its TACO TIME!!!!! Hey... ARFink!!!!... WE NEED A NEW papa paco (he'd want lower case, I'm sure of it...) TACO TIME! Edited March 30, 2013 by AnneLine
arfink Posted March 30, 2013 Author Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) Well yes, and he's even from the Land of Tacos, so I suppose that's completely appropriate. :) I'll have to do it. And as for sharing recipes, I suppose I could share my chicken taco recipe. It's pretty awesome. Edited March 30, 2013 by arfink
AnneLine Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 Maybe if we asked REALLY NICELY Pope Francis would give us HIS recipe? I want BOTH of your recippies, actually! And... I's gonna make you jealous ARFink. Bouncing off your suggestion, I just made some wonderful Tacos al Pastor (with lamb) from what was left of the Holy Thursday Roast. Which i guess makes them Liturgically correct tacos.... Mr. AnneLine really liked the idea of keeping taco stuff around the house, too.... I just wish you could have come on over!!! And now I'm gonna have a mini-nap and go to the Easter Vigil!!!! Just posted the LAST DAY OF FLYLADY'S LENTEN CHALLENGE!!!! Whoo whoo!!! I'm STILL hoping it might make a hot thread at over 100 posts... I dunno... getting close.....
arfink Posted March 31, 2013 Author Posted March 31, 2013 Well I didn't get my nap before the vigil. This is gonna be fun... hope I don't do this too much during mass :yawn:
arfink Posted April 3, 2013 Author Posted April 3, 2013 I made this. :) http://weaselsgonarf.blogspot.com/2013/04/daily-draw-robot-ponders-high-quality.html
arfink Posted April 3, 2013 Author Posted April 3, 2013 I love sci-fi, especially when it's just insane mind wrecking stuff. :evil: Seriously, this is a short story that is really beautifully crafted and thought-provoking. And will probably give you a phobia of boxes. "All you had to do was reverse-engineer one little box." http://lightspeedmagazine.kinja.com/lightspeed-presents-deus-ex-arca-by-desirina-bosko-461155580
AnneLine Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Good Lord, man, where do you FIND this stuff?????!!!
AnneLine Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I still think he looks like he is eating a chicken leg. Maybe in a light sauce... :evil: I made this. :) http://weaselsgonarf.blogspot.com/2013/04/daily-draw-robot-ponders-high-quality.html
arfink Posted April 3, 2013 Author Posted April 3, 2013 And now for a crazy owl cultist. Those of you familiar with the Call of Cthulu junk by H.P. Lovecraft will know what's going on here. http://weaselsgonarf.blogspot.com/2013/04/daily-draw-madness-of-owls.html
arfink Posted April 4, 2013 Author Posted April 4, 2013 http://weaselsgonarf.blogspot.com/2013/04/daily-draw-man-with-scarf.html Did some more painting. This one is of a man with a scarf, walking in a windy desert.
arfink Posted April 5, 2013 Author Posted April 5, 2013 http://weaselsgonarf.blogspot.com/2013/04/daily-draw-one-that-got-messed-up.html This one has a little bit of an interesting story. I was showing a friend how to paint with watercolors, and just doing practice strokes and stuff on a blank paper, in straight green paint. When I got done I just had a jumble of rather random brush strokes. My friend asked me what I intended to do with it, now that I had wrecked the page, and I replied that the page wasn't wrecked and I could probably do something with it. So I turned it into a landscape afterwards. :)
MissyP89 Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) I never got a chance to tell you about the epic thing that Brian took me to the day we got engaged. (I had actually texted Linda on the way back from the event, promising to tell her all about it, but uh, I forgot. Hahahahaha.) This parish on Long Island held a Lenten experience for the last week and a half or so before Easter, I think it was called "Journey to the Cross." Basically it walked you through all the events of Holy Week in a Stations of the Cross format. It started with journaling how you hoped to spend the last week of your own life, and ended with the Resurrection of Jesus. Each station had Scripture, questions for reflection, etc. But here's the cool part: each station also had an activity that engaged at least one of your physical senses. So at the Last Supper station there were little pieces of bread and a bowl of water and a towel. It was all very meditative. Super cool. I'm going to blog about it in more detail probably today. What I meant to tell you about, Fink, was the end. After you were all done and exited the area where the stations were, they had a guestbook for feedback and reflection. Across the way from that, there was a big, colorful sign on the wall that read "Draw your reflection." Hanging on the wall were all kinds of pictures people had done. A lot of them looked like children's drawings, but there were quite a few that were very detailed and beautiful, too. They had pastels and crayons and watercolors and markers and even charcoal. Everything you could think of. All colors of construction paper, stamps, glitter, stickers, and a little lamp to work by. Thought you'd have loved it. Maybe one day during Lent or Advent in the future, you can join us. Edited April 5, 2013 by MissyP89
