Speedpaints (and other assorted updates)

Speedpainting is a great way to warm up.  Here are some I’ve done in the last couple of months.

Most of them were 30 minutes…except for the bottom one, which I spent way too much time on.

Sometimes I record myself doing these, then speed it up, which makes me feel like Bob Ross!

Behold a 15-seconder:

Here’s some other stuff that’s been going on!

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is being sold.  THE Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!  The one from the actual movie!!

It’s going for a cool 3.5 million.  Totally worth it.

I figure if each of my blog readers gives me a million dollars, I’ll be able to afford it…plus money for a new engine so it doesn’t make that funny noise.

Some people have asked me what I think the upcoming Mary Poppins sequel.  (You’ve heard that news, right?)

This is how I feel.

How dare they.  How dare they.

A lot of people have asked about my sister!  She is doing great!

Here’s a quick phone picture I took with her and my niece, Mary.

Her hair is growing back!  Doesn’t she look beautiful?

She’s been stable for 6 months–meaning no new growth (unheard of with her cancer!) and so the doctors think she has a good case for the insurance to help with the bone marrow transplant.  They’re undergoing approvals right now.  Thank you so much for all your kind thoughts and prayers!  I know they’ve been helping.
