show me your wild self!

Well, I was supposed to go in to work today and do a short shift while me kiddies were in school. But before I'd dropped the little ones off I rec'd a call from work saying I was not needed on that unit today after all. Wooot! Boy, sometimes you just don't know how much you didn't want to do something until you feel the relief of not having to do it. Am I right?


So, I'm taking today as a "bonus" day. Now that I'm over that horrible "Death Flu" that's been going around and managed to finish a paper for school, I want to clear a bit of clutter, get caught up on the laundry, collage a cover for my 2008 "financials" notebook, and prep some new canvases. I have some paintings that have existed in my mind for weeks and now want to come out in a physical manifestation. I have been (mostly!) sticking to my "daily devotions," creating a piece of art (1) every day -- even when I was recently in Vermont for my winter residency I managed to do some ACEOs(2) in my hotel room on pre-cut 2.5"x3.5" cardstock pieces I brought with me. Now I am itching to start making larger pieces.


Before I head down to the basement workshop, I wanted to share with you this fun little something I found on this gal's blog: a really cool generator that lets you Build Your Wild Self.


Here's me as a Lun-Fly-Lion:



What does YOUR wild self look like?
