Today's Muse: A Stiff Wrist

I'm a little ill today.

I found some old paints left over from when I was thirteen? Fourteen? and still took art in school. Seeing as I needed samples to give an idea of the colour for the walls, I started mixing paints, hoping to finally use them up - I had to pound the paint out of the tubes, and ended up cutting them open.

I ended up making the picture you see above. I started running out of the mixed purple by the time half the paper was covered, and I ended up with one side smooth and solid and the other all streaky. So I wet the brush and just made streaks everywhere.

The green bit didn't quite some out the way I wanted it to. The whole shades shit turned out more shit than shades.

Ach. Painting isn't my strong suit, at any rate. I was making it up as I went along. But it was just the thing for an otherwise ill sort of afternoon.
