And it's been dry. Lake Travis is down 43 feet. And in Costa Rica, where I just moved from. it's been monsoonal rains for a week. Matter of fact , a fellow from down there sent me a photo of a local Costa Rican newscast.
Anyway, I decided to try to do something about the heat.
First, I thought I'd go to the swimming Pool.... Nah.
Then some friends from Louisiana invited me to go sky diving.....Nah.
Then some friends of mine down the road wanted me to go mud diving.....nah
So-o-o-o-o, being a member in good standing in the Texas Redneck Association, I put my thinking cap on and came up with the obvious solution....pictured below.
Three Works in Progress commissions that I hope to finish up before the turn of the century.
A MAN AND HIS DOG
A WOMAN AND HER PARROT

ReplyDeleteHi Mr James
ReplyDeleteThose were some great ideas to help cool you off. My suggestion is that you put icecubes in your bed! Or your socks! Of course it would be just temporary.
You always think up fun stuff for the artists. I guess it's because your just a kid at heart.
Those artist paints for the DOG CHALLENGE, are spectacular! Wow!!! Such talented artists!
And of course you are included in the group of aritsts- your fantastico!
xoxoxo

James - your blog always makes me smile! Great commission pieces. It's amazing you can do several at once - I think I'd get confused!
ReplyDeleteSuch great pictures James, They are so fun. Congratulations on the commissions
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the finished paintings James!
ReplyDeleteYou crack me up! Love all the pics but I think putting a pool in a flatbed truck is my favorite. You can take a dip and a drive all at the same time!!
Good to see your new work and enjoyed the cool photos.
ReplyDeleteHey, it's winter in Africa but when summer comes, the truck idea is a good one! Looking forward to seeing the end results of these paintings and congratulations on the commissions! Well done James and thanks for the laugh.
ReplyDeleteFunny photos! Can't wait to see your finished commissions! And congrats on having 3 at once! That's awesome!
