@JENGOSMonkey I WAS THERE FOR '89! I was a kid, but I remember the water coming out of the swimming pool in huge waves and everything falling from the shelves! I was actually born in San Jose, but moved around a lot later LOL I hear the wildfires are more of a concern for you guys now? That's scarier than quakes for me...
Herman Brood
-
That's an artist in Holland, (well he was.. he killed himself a few years ago)
my mother is crazy about him and his paintings, and when the toilet at my parents house needed a make-over.. I was asked to do it like the herman brood style…
(I already painted a Paddington at the wall, because it was a paddingtond toilet... thisis much better hahaha)So my mom and I chose a painting:
Naked Beauty:
My mom had one question, to make it like me.. ?! huh?
She wanted to give the "naked beauty" a personality, she wanted her to be me!
It have to get a pregnant tummy and some ajustments…. alright.. I'll try..So today, I started drawing (also a hobby of mine) on a little paper and get known with the figures.
A few hours ago, I took some wallpaper and cut it in the size of the toilet wall and put it on the diner table to draw it..
I got also help from my cat Spaiky.. he wanted to lie on the paper... did not want to come off... hahahaWhen I was a little bit happy with the results, I taped it on the bookcase and make some more adjustments...
This is the result:
I'm happy with it, now I have to paint it on the wall and give it the same colours as the real painting. but.. thats the next step…
