  • The Holy Crap Calendar!

    February

    2005

    I’ve just created what I will excitedly and lovingly refer to from here on out as my Holy Crap Calendar™.

    The HCC™ can be found on my Artsy Skin (the default blog design) top center, and will be a daily indicator of the current (known) days remaining before our Holy Crap Reality Reunion™. You can also find out how I’m doing by taking a quick glance at my Holy Crap Level Indicator™.

    Be advised that known days remaining are based on current information obtained by multiple sources, none of which are 100% reliable. Only the plane (and its pilots) will really know what’s going on.

    Here’s the final scan & eye close-ups on Luke & Ella’s portrait.

    I’m going to be pretty busy today, so I’m not sure when I’ll be postin’ those sketches for you of my next portraits. Stop back again later tonight!

    It’s finally done! I am going to go to bed at a decent hour tonight, so I’ll get the sketch(es) up tomorrow of my next piece(s)!!! Oh yea, I’ll scan this one too – both of their eyes turned out amazing, and you can’t see it here in this pic. Foo! You’ll see tomorrow.

    I’ve turned on my new fancy-schmancy webcam, and I’ll be finishing up Luke & Ella today if ya wanna watch!

    I’ll sketch out my next piece after this one is finished, so you’ll see that one up here tonight, too.

    I’m going to add a few more details to Luke today (just a few I swear, that boy has been getting ALL of my attention!), and then on to Ella. See the difference in the digital pics in daylight vs. my nighttime “daylight” lamps? Wierd, huh?

    Hey and how cool is this? I was just looking at my referrers, this one is cool! Search results for “Leanne” on MSN!

    Yea, I painted.

    It’s late, and I’ve been instructed to “Git”, so I’ll take a picture in the morning. Oh, wait. It is morning. Ok. Well. I’ll take a picture in a few hours then. heh!

    The new webcam has arrived (albeit 4 hours later than I had hoped for), it’s installed, and whooowie! Ya have to see!

    Now had it arrived when I expected it, I would have been painting for 4 hours already. Oh well, that’s what you get for pacing. hehe!

    I’m going to leave the cam on, and will try to paint a little before dinner and then again after 8:30PM CST.

    New Toy!!!

    My good friend Erikie posted a clip of her beauty-full self in her blog the other day, and I instantly suffered from webcam envy. Her webcam is crystal clear, OH so detailed, and I WANT THAT WEBCAM!

    So being the ostentatious (and cheap) kinda gal that I am, I bought it. And they shipped it the very next day. FedEx. And it’s “out for delivery”!!! YAHOO! Now I’m not sure what time it will arrive, but you can bet your bootie that as soon as it arrives I will be giddy and drunk with excitement as I rip open the package and install it in my studio!

    If you’ve ever watched me painting on webcam, just you wait. My current cam is blurry and blechy and if I had only known that better cam could be had, I would have been all over it.

    I’m good enough, I’m pretty enough, and daggone it, people want to watch me paint!
