Back at it

October 9, 2009

koi latest

Evidently I was working on this back in April or thereabouts.  At least that’s when I first displayed the image here at a post entitled Do Clean House Occasionally.  I’ve been working on this picture again, bringing it up from its roughed-in beginnings, and gosh darn, I’ve been cleaning again too.  Is that weirdly psychological or what?

I’m getting so organized I scare myself.  I’m in serious danger of losing my membership in the Phyllis Diller fan club (where bicentennial cleaning is the ideal).  Well, organized or not, I cannot have been cleaning all that much because look how much progress I made on my painting.

    I like organized! This painting is organized and going the right direction to become a fine piece.


  3. I once read a saying: “A clean house means a misspent life.” : ) This painting is very nice, rather spend time painting. :)


  4. Lovely picture – we have a pond in our back garden, designed to attract frogs, but the fish are growing huge – reminds me of when we feed the fish – a frenzy of fish.


  5. Thank you, Bill. But notice that the koi don’t leave a trail of chocolate anywhere …. (a non sequitur to mystify subsequent readers, sending you more traffic, ah hem!) ak


  6. butterflyhands, you understand my fears perfectly! though my other fear is getting lost in the household chaos! ak


  7. Gabrielle, your place sounds more and more like paradise — frogs, fish, kangaroos, exotic chickens! AK


  8. I haven’t even mentioned the gouldian finches that my better half breeds – I’ll do a blog one day!
