Big dork

This is a phrase my husband often uses for me. "You are such a big dork."  It isn't a criticism, really, its more of a term of endearment.  I have a tendency to get excited over silly, ridiculous things.  For example:

This is my new angle brush - I am so excited, it is made from synthetic mongoose hair.  Who knew such a thing existed?  All I know is that it is going to be awesome to do lettering with and I have a LARGE letter project I am starting this evening.  

With that LARGE lettering project comes a BIG canvas, and with a BIG canvas comes the need for a BIG paint brush for backgrounds and covering large areas.  That is where this fella comes into play.  I've never had a BIG wash brush and I am happy to add this to my collection.  


Last, but not least is Mr. Angular brush - it is significantly bigger than the one I mentioned above, but thats because it does different things!  This guy will take the place of the one I purchased a month ago that will be retired to the preschool paintbox.  It was a good brush, but now this one is better!

I am so excited to use my new brushes.  There was one that I secretly covet, but just couldn't justify spending $50, yes I said $50 on.  Not until Ryan gets a job. So until then, I will just think of you often my little brush...

Big Happy Dork!

Anyway, I mailed out my painting for the Walters and just had a new order placed, so I am off do some painting.  Until then...

Thanks!
