Pillow Talk Extras

The two images above are more from the film still series. These are both small watercolor paintings mounted on wood. Both show extras from the film Pillow Talk. I became fascinated with watching the brief moments where the extras were the main focus of a shot. Even though they are people, they really just act as background scenery for the larger story, yet they are people with their own lives and stories that may have been elated by their one moment on screen.

Underwater Seascapes

I have a desk job and with that comes looking at a computer screen all day and a nondescript gray desk. It also leaves me with itchy fingers and legs, which keep asking me in a frustrated tone 'why are you sitting inside all day? Move me please.'
To which I respond : Legs you have a valid point, but fingers, i move you all the time.
Fingers: Typing does not count!
Me:...Touché
To make my work space more inviting I have been adding drawings along the desks back splash. Drawings make my fingers happy, and give me a pleasant landscape to escape into. These drawings include underwater seascapes, which remind me of my boyfriend's hypnotic aquariums. Caution:Aquariums can be more addicting than television. My boyfriend's tank does not have a hammer head shark, but a girl can dream.

Christmas!

I love, love, love Christmas. I love Christmas songs (except for the awful Christmas shoes song). I love the lights, the decorations, the tree. This year my sister and I collaborated on some stockings featuring reindeer boy. Pictured are also some door knob decorations. Yes, I even decorate my door knob.
