So I received a few free tickets to this event called Art Walk, which happened yesterday. It was supposed to be this large event with live music and a bunch of booths with different artists showcasing their work. It was pretty disappointing. I'll just leave it at that. Here is the only photo I took of the event, which I thought looked really neat.

I don't like how blurry this turned out though. :/


Look! Somebody has papayas growing in their yard! I've never seen papayas growing in a person's yard before.


I had Emma this weekend. Here she is, once again, desperately wanting to be part of the group, but not quite knowing how. She's so adorable.

My friend Chris and I had an art day last week. Here he is creating a really neat painting of a God shooting down beams of fire that turn into tentacles instead of flames. And a man whose soul is of flowers? Actually, I have no clue what the meaning behind the flowers is. Chris is so creative though. He has such an impressive collection of work.





He's so good at hands. I'm jealous.


I really haven't finished a single piece of artwork for what feels like forever now. I was sketching this one several weeks ago while at Starbucks with Albert:



And here's a teaser of a piece I've been working on forever. I may never actually finish it. Sorry it came out so blurry! It was nighttime when I took the photo:


A close-up of my teaching outfit this past Thursday:



Two cute boys. Don't mind the couch-cover falling off to reveal the hideous couch behind it...or the fact that David is flipping me off. I couldn't get my beautiful victorian couch into my new home! We LITERALLY could not get it through the tiny doors or the windows. I'm still so sad. :(


Poor Emma had to have a bath after this incident. She was shaking from being so terrified! Poor thing!




If I had all the time in the world, I would love to create some stitchwork:

Two more friends of mine are going to be moving down here within the next two months! Yay! That will make the grand total of friends who've ventured from Esco to San Diego to 7! Yay! I'm slowly going to get everyone down here. That's my masterplan.

I've never eaten papayas before. Do they taste nice?
Love the lady with the blue eye makeup in your painting!

9 out of 10 times, the papayas sold in stores are ROTTEN! I have no clue why. There will even be mold on them and the taste is pretty revolting. Yet people still buy them. I have tasted a fresh papaya before and it was delicous. I'm now disgusted to know that I used to actually eat them rotten and thought that they were supposed to taste like butt.

I love the details in your new piece! The striped stockings are fantastic.

There was an art walk here yesterday, too. I felt the same way about ours. Disappointing.
