Haven't had much time to paint, or post, end of the semester, you understand. So in the meantime, I'll leave you with some pics...

shaken and stirred
Last night we had an earthquake, little ol' Missouri. It registered 5.2.
It happened around 4:30 in the morning, and it woke my husband and myself. It seemed to last a long time. We lay in bed, feeling the house vibrating. He sleepily asks me, "Why is the house shaking?" I assumed it must be an earthquake, but that seemed absurd, so I said "I don't know." Then he replies, "Well, can you go see?"
Um, no
I have to admit, I was a little scared, so I scooted closer to him, and held his hand till I fell back asleep. This morning I raced to the tv and turned on local news, and sure enough, earthquake. There seems to be minor damage around town. A few bricks fell from a bridge in the city.
The strange thing is before the quake woke me, I was having a dream about a sort of natural disaster. A giant earthworm, monster creature thing was traveling underground and pushing up buildings and highrises and generally wrecking havoc. Hmmm...

Celebrate!
Final paper is done! It ended up differently than I thought, I did it on kachina dolls of the Hopi's. I thought I would focus on individual dolls and their meanings, but I ended up focusing on the stylistic changes of them over time. I just started writing and all of my information was so interesting, that I had five pages written before I could get into individual dolls. Her instructions stated that she would stop reading after 5 pages.
So that's all I wrote...
Now, maybe I can get back to painting
