Picture of the Day ~ 11.06.15

I hadn't decided whether or not I was going to post this page, but since so many of you feel like you can't color or will screw it up, I decided to share this.

This was essentially a tessellation with no particular design already laid out.   To me I saw "flowers" so that's how I decided to color it.   Now that it's colored I actually see other possibilities, but the flowers were what jumped out to me initially.   I was coloring this in the car on the way to a dr. appt. and somehow managed to get off by a block.

I started with the light purple flower that is roughly in the center.  Then I went to the purple ones on either side, the blue one to the right and then I started on the row below that with the red, pink, purple one and came around to do the blue one above it.  That is where I made my error and I didn't catch it until after the teal and green ones.  

When I found the error I was pretty frustrated because if it had just been the one blue flower it would have been easier to fix.   My husband suggested the black diamonds to try and make it look like "blank" space.   That sounded good in theory, but I don't like it in action.   On the next row, to correct things, I just did the "petals" that would have been done if I hadn't made the error and got back on track.    I think those fixes look much better and are less noticeable than the black, so I learned something.

I still have fun with this page, even though I messed it up and that is the important thing.   You really can't color something "wrong" because however you color something is the way it should be :) .

It still looks good to me!

I have a hard time with the pictures that have things that overlap. I have a hard time telling what goes with what so I make "mistakes." But I just try not to care too much anymore. With my hand pain, I can't color very often. I've been working on the same picture for months.

My first impression of the page was stacked cubes, not flowers.

I LOVE that, but I don't know how I would transition the colors right!

When I look at it now, I see stacked cubes.  I couldn't see them when it wasn't colored though.   Now I actually have a hard time seeing the "flowers."   I have to refocus on the brightish yellow one and then I can see the flowers, not the cubes.

      I would say that if Art isn't fundraising, that their basic needs are being met by their income.  Sure they aren't going to go out to dinner or buy lottery tickets but if their basic needs are met, they can work towards other goals without the stress of knowing if they can make rent or pay for utilities.

      I know a trans person (male to female). It’s been about a year since they came out. Their birth name is Harry but they go by Hari.  Saw new pictures of them today & they look like a natural female.

      some trans or nonbinary people try to pick something similar to their origin name to make the transition for other people easier. so Maddie to Matthew or Bailey to Bryan. considering Artemis real name is Cynthia, they could have gone by Cy, pronounced "sigh" or Cyril, Cyrus, Cyd. Artemis Stardust just seems like art wanted a name they deemed as "cool". but honestly makes them standout in a negative way since people know art did it on purpose and probably wasn't named that at birth. And if Art wants to change their last name why doing they just takes their partners last name. They said a while ago they were engaged and tried to thrift money for a courthouse wedding. with matching tailored tuxedos and custom rainbow rings. Art if your health  and death wishes are so important to you  just go to the courthouse and get married, you dont need to beg hard workin people for money so you can have pride rings and a custom tuxedo, there are suits at the thrift shop and cheap rings anywhere

      Crockett seems to have been spending a lot of time with his brother and Hayley in FL. I wonder if seeing them married is giving him the itch to get married, too.
