I'm in an artful mood today!

Okay Perfectly Apropriate

That's what's going on outside right now :P

Rain, rain, rain again
Why are you such a pain?
Wonder why plants love you
if you turn the dirt into goo

Rain, rain, rain and BOOM
Send those trees to their doom
Down goes one on your car
struck by lightening from the stars

Rain, rain, rain again
Your coming is so plain
By the darkness in the clouds
And the poor sleepy cows

Rain, rain, rain AWAY
So the sun can finally play

The Definition of a Heart in One Picture

I think it speaks for itself.  It was just such a coincidence when I was listening to Windows Media Player and it started playing Average Girl by Barlow Girl.

Fruit

Delightfully delicious.

I mostly wrote this because I wanted to draw something on Paint.  But I think it looks pretty.

What do you think?

It's the Paint Version of Eric Carl!

You've undoubtedly have seen my pictures I've done on Microsoft Paint.  But I want to show you how to do a specific type of my art.  Like these here:

They look difficult to make, don't they?  It's actually not too hard.  I'll show ya how it's done.

First open up Microsoft Paint.  If you're a beginner or don't even know what Microsoft Paint is, it's just a computer program designed so that you can draw on your computer.  If you're uninterested, don't bother reading this post.

Click on a tool.  I like to use the paint brush set on a medium circle like this:

 Next, hold down the left mouse button and move it around.  While scrolling.  If your computer does what I think it should, after a while you should have a page full of scribbles like this:

You probably think that now you're done.  Quite the contrary my friend!  Now layer on other colors.  What ever you wish is fine.  You can use different brush sizes to scribble.  Your finished product should look something like this:

 or this:

 or like this:

 or maybe this:

 yellow:

 light blue

 grrrreeen

I've taken one scribble before and made different files after layering color on to make it a different shade.

Now you're done.  With part A.  Now, make it so that you have two Paints open like this:

Okay, have one of those Microsoft Paints blank and expand the canvas if you must.  In the other Paint, open one of your scribble files.  Click on this tool:

now draw a click and drag to draw a shape.  Now you need to right click on the box that forms around your shape.  Press ctrl. and C at the same time to copy (hopefully you know how to do that).  Now, in your other file, paste that shape into your blank file like this:

And then. AND THEN, you can add details.  I bet you thought you were done.  Continue drawing, copying and pasting until you are content with your artwork.

Ta da!  You're done.

It's Panda Time!

I don't even care if this is in any order anymore.  I'm just feeling happy (unlike how it looks outside) and want something cheerier.

Adorable, right?  This one was actually a surprise that Muppet fixed up for me one day.  She painted my nails while we watched Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat.  Which was a lot weirder than I remembered.  And the guy who played Joseph played a samurai in Mulan.  Which I hadn't known before.

The second picture is showing off my thumb.  If you notice, the eye closest the camera has a flower like shape.  Not the white of the eye, the black around it.  I thought that was just so cute, but it was completely accidental so, don't ask me how Muppet did it.  lol.

She started with the white circles on the tips of my nails with the nail brush.  Like this:

Then wait for it to dry some.  I was confused as to what this was when she started painting white circles on my nails.  It took me forever to guess what it was supposed to be. lol.  Now add the ears.  I think Muppet used the round end of a pencil, but not one with an eraser.  Because then you couldn't erase with it and what use would that be? :)

At this point I was really confused.  I think I guessed it was Mickey Mouse or something because the ears kept looking so large.  And then I thought they were eyes to some weird alien.  Or maybe abstract art.  Next add the black eye spots with the use of your handy dandy bobby pin.

Also with the use of your bobby pin (but hopefully you'll cleaned it off first), use white nail polish and dot the eyes.

Don't forget the nose (also with bobby pin)! you can do the nose at the same time you're doing the eye spots to save time if you'd like.

Viola!  Oh, and if you like shiny, long lasting nails, do a top coat.  I prefer my nails to last long so that they will look cute until Muppet paints them again.  What do you think of my awesome panda nails?

Well, that concludes yet another nail post!

Ladybug Nails!

My next nails should be more exciting.  Aren't they cute?  I've loved ladybugs for forever!  I can't remember when I didn't love them except for maybe when I was so little I didn't know what they were or something lol.  These nails take a steady hand (something that I don't have a lot of the time).  Again, I don't remember the name of this nail polish.  So your lady bugs will probably look different from mine in color but, hey, when did God ever make two completely identical objects?

Moving on, of course (unless you're color blind) you should be able to see that they're red.  But you may not know that this was the first coat lol.  Okay, then you should use a thin brush to do the next part which is much more delicate than painting your nails red.  Paint the black head on each nail and a stripe down the center of the ladybug's back.  your nails should look like this:

Add spots using a bobby pin.

and eyes (also with bobby pin).

Your nails should not look like the ones I painted here because I doubt anyone is made out of pixels lol.  Except people who aren't real or have been photo shopped and in that case are still not real.  But this is besides the point.  What your nails should look like are ladybugs.  And also adorable.  Unless you played Mario Kart Wii and now your nails are ruined.  But in that case, don't feel bad because I do that all the time.  Which of course is why I don't suggest it.  lol.

Happy painting to you!

Some more music

Grab a ticket in your hand; the ride will soon begin.  Try your best your very best, go round and round again!  That's how the Ferris Wheel song goes.  Annoying.  Absolutely, positively, completely annoying.  That was only part of the song.  The last line.  Before it goes into a whole bunch of vocal exercises or what ever you want to call them.  To me, they're annoying.  I don't know why.  It's just annoying and that's all I can say about this subject.

Music.  Like this music:

Anyways.  I don't know what to blog about.  Maybe it's because Muppet is gone in California now :'(  Although, if I were actually showing emotion right now, it would be more like X'O  Or maybe more like this:

Wow.  That was actually fun to draw.  Maybe I should do what my cat feels like now that Muppet has left for a while.

Oh my word, that's fun.  Well I have no other school today so maybe I'll hang out on paint.  Well, actually Cosmo would look like this:

That's enough for one day!

My Best Friend is a Rainbow Kitty Cat

Now what I really wanted to blog about was my last post...er...the post before the Winnie the Pooh post.  Yeah, the crazy one.  I don't think you are really reading those long rambling posts.  So just to sum up that post for you (so you don't have to go through the trouble of reading that whole thing), it's impossible for me to combine my ideas into one single story.

You know how I can't ever finished any task I assign myself?  It shows in my blog because there are several past posts that I say, well I'm going to add this to my blog, and I'm going to this ___of the day, and I'll post pictures and stories and garbage from my computer so that the world will understand and...it doesn't really work.  The only sure thing about this blog is that I'll always post regularly unless I say otherwise.  But I remember back in the beginning of this blog, I was all like, "I'm going to blog everyday!" and then I couldn't.  Because I'm a busy girl.  In fact I probably should go and write a summery for my science experiment right now.  But I'm not going to because I read one chapter in the Scarlet Letter and answered the rest of my history questions this morning.


I want to post more music, but I can't get myself to go on YouTube.  I don't feel like searching for things online right now.

Look at that!  I lied.  I realized that I did have an urge to look something up.  It needed to happen.  Eventually.  Because this is such a cute song and now that I've seen the music video, I have to agree that it's adorable.  I blogged I while ago about this song and I wrote the chorus' lyrics because I loved the song so much.  It's called Don't Have Love by Holly Starr.  The whole thing is just adorable.  The tune, the lyrics, the music video; heck, even the song writer has an awesome name.  Not that I don't (tee hee).  But you'll never know my real name...except if you actually know me.  But this is getting off subject!  Well, then again, when does this blog ever stay on top of things.

Main point:  I love music and I had the courage to go on YouTube today so that I could find my (new) favorite song.  I can't just say this is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE or something in bold, because I love so many good Christian music.  And I don't really care if people think I'm psycho because I don't listen to anything new besides whatever they have on Spirit FM.  People really aren't writing very good music anymore anywhere else.  I mean, some of the stuff on Christian Radio (in my opinion) is dragging a little more lately.  I mean, there is a lot this year that's good and catchy and like, but most recently, I haven't really been jumping when the radio says "New Release" or something.  But I have to say that, if I had an Ipod, I would purchase this song off of ITunes.  But I have a MP3 that has an almost full memory and I don't know how to take songs off of.  So I'm stuck with whatever junk I put on it three or four months ago.  But at least I think I know what I'm getting for Christmas this year.

I'm also sad that my speakers aren't working for some reason.  Stupid technology.  Everything looks the same: phones look like Ipods, Ipods look like Tablets, Tablets look like Ipads, Ipads look like miniature flat-screen HD TV's, HD TV's look like 3D TV's.  Soon our world will be paved in electronic, touch-screen, tiles.  I hope DS's don't turn into little dual screen tiles.  I think I would cry.  Not that we even own that sort of technology, nor do I care right now for it.  I wonder when they'll move from flat surfaces to round balls.  Then people will be kicking balls to call their friends and burn calories at the same time.  They already make ice cream machine kick balls so my idea isn't too far fetched.  Well maybe it is but anyways.

Oh and if you are interested in finding out more about Holly Starr (like I do) go here:  http://hollystarrmusic.com/about/

I love it when people use the gift of music to spread the word of God, it's so touching.  Not just Holly, but people like Jamie-Grace, Matt Maher, Matthew West, Stephen Curtis Chapman, and Francesca Battistelli, to name a few.  Speaking of Jamie-Grace, I still have an unsigned picture of her.  Maybe I'll get it signed by her one day.  I love day dreaming.  With imagination you can fly when you're grounded, travel the world while you remain in your bedroom, walk when you know you can't even stand...But sometimes imagination can be a terrible thing, you can see the worst that hasn't even happened yet, hurt yourself on words you don't mean, rest in a past of pain...The worst thing about imagination is also the best, sometimes you can't control your thoughts and sometimes you can.

Wow, I've said a lot.  I guess this is what happens when Muppet's not here for me to pester her with my strange ideas and theories or whatnot.  I'm going to go do something constructive.

Hello Fuzz Balls!!!!!!

Yeah, so I felt the need to blog.  Not that I have anything to blog ABOUT.  But, you know, I'll find something interesting to talk about.

So I've been reading my friend R's blog some and I keep finding inspirational tidbits everywhere on it!  Check this quote out:

Don’t you know, child, that even when you’re angry, discouraged, jealous, bitter, hopeless, annoyed, and mean, I still love you? I can understand you, so look at Me now, and ignore all the things the world is showing you. They’re not important, but you are important to Me. I will always be with you. You’re not alone.


great, right?  And then it even has that one quote from The Help that goes:


"You is kind
You is smart
You is important"



And I was scrolling around in it and I even found my #1 favorite Bible verse in Jeremiah.  But I can't remember the number...possibly 29:13 or something...Whatever.  It was just cool, so...Yeah, you should check out her blog.  Just click on my profile and click on the blog "He Loves Like a Hurricane" and it will take you there!


And then I saw a quote from one of Taylor Swift's songs: "All you wanted was to be wanted." love that quote.  I just love her stuff.  And Jamie-Grace.  Two really good singers.

Well, darn.  I can't really post an end picture because I'm not even blogging on my own computer.  I'm on my grandparent's computer now.  But the good news is that I can post a picture I drew of De Blob (the blob from a video game we once owned.)  The character looked kind of like this:

The yellow blob is the player.  The little gray things, I can't remember what they're called but I'm certain you can look it up for yourself if you'd like.  I only remember that if you roll over them with the blob, it frees them from being held captive by the bad guy.  And the spider-like thing, that's one of the bad guys on the game.  And the blob can change the colors of the buildings.  It was a fun game.  I finished it.  Before any of my siblings.  And then there was a Ratatouille game we had that I finished before my brother and sisters too, but that was all.

Now my brother is doing the happy dance because a baseball team just got a grand slam or something to that effect and now they have four points and the other team playing them has two points.

Not that I really care about sports, but baseball is interesting.  I had a friend who played softball.

Yeah...  I want to post more pictures now but this computer just has a bunch of junk.  See:

See what I mean?  Let's see...

actually, this cat is cute...oh, that's weird... hold on a second, oh, that's better.  My blog started making all my sentences links.  Silly Blogger.

I really don't have much to say here.  I think the art speaks for itself.  It says: "Beware!  I is a weird and scary being with a dangerous imagination!  Watch out!" or something like that.

I went to a ministry meeting at my church because I'm an alter server and they wanted me there.  I really didn't learn anything new that they hadn't taught me already when I went to the alter serving meeting the last time.  So basically it was a waste of time, but it was another one of those unpredictable moments that God sticks in my life.  One of my few friends I have at my church that actually talks to me (I'll call her Pikachu after her obsessive love of Pokemon), was there and she probably would have died of boredom if I didn't come.  We listened to them yak on and on, but we were very uninterested because most of what the guy speaking at meeting said either (a didn't have to do with alter servers or (b we'd already heard before.  So we were mostly making faces at each other and playing with our hands.  Then we started doing the llama song with our hands because we were running out of interesting things to do with ourselves.

So I guess I was there for a reason besides that they told me to come...LOL.

Well that's enough for now!
