Ovation TV has a show running called Art Race which follows two competing Artists traveling coast to coast with no wallet or support system. They live by their wits and their Art is traded as their currency. Meals, lodging and travel… paid for with Watercolor or Oils. If it were only that simple. It’s on again tonight — check it out… We seem to have a favorite in Kenny here — sorry Ben. Good luck to both Artists. And oh my gosh — So refreshing to see something beyond Bob Ross reruns and Donna Dewberry’s One Stroke Painting. Yes indeed Ovation is giving me an Art fix…

Had my fill of medical diagnostics this past week and need to go do something different. It is slightly more bearable than last week — temper­ature — humidity wise outside and that will help a lot. I scribbled the cow below earlier this week. I hope to go see some more farms and countryside today. Been reading and getting inspired. I think that the Grange Fair will be happening here soon. Yep — Angorra Bunnies to Belgian Work Horses whose shoulders are taller than I am.

We aren’t likely to see storms till sometime Sunday. We had some nice ones last week and fortu­nately the blackout associated with the heat did not last too long. Hope that everyone is using the new Weather dot com apps that the site is sharing. I appre­ciate the data link that they provide down the right margin of this blog. I think that I can hear my wife starting to wake up. I came down at 4:00 AM and did the dishes and made the coffee — so I’ve been pretty quiet. Darn email is down as my provider had a “hardware emergency”. Maybe it will be back sometime today? Been gone since yesterday afternoon when I got back from my testing.

This video is directly from YouTube. Sure it’s been around for a while but… is it a concern that during those years in the White House… Oh jeez — I meant to hit that other button. Other versions of this exist on YouTube and a simple search can locate them.

This is what I do to rest my eyes when I take a break from painting. I hope to finish my painting this weekend and maybe go somewhere that we can draw on the spot or paint. I think that I should have number of them going at once. 

I suppose I ought to get back to my Watercolor image now. Wash is dry.
