Overworked elephants...


I have been really tired the past few days and have been just sort of slugging around. I slept until noon today and still felt tired. Therefore, I just sort of lounged the day away and didn't do much of anything at all. It's amazing how fast the day goes by when you are just wasting time being lazy. This evening, realizing I hadn't done a damn thing, I decided I would do some elephants in color. These are a mixture of watercolor pencils and watercolors. As with most of my attempts with watercolor, they are overworked. Overworked elephants. With watercolor, less is more. I don't know much about watercolor at all, but I do know that one essential fact.

Tomorrow it's back to work for me. I'm sure I will be tired and sluggish again. At least I won't be at home overworking elephants. Elephants have rights, you know...

Hey Anne,
I love your overworked elephants...they are so neat. I also love the other paintings or drawings you have done in the last few days and I have been too busy to comment on....lots of company the last week.

I do hope you are feeling better and I have to tell you, I was sluggish all day and night yesterday after my company left. Just didn't feel like doing a thing so don't feel like the "lone ranger". Today it's back to washing again....Joy, Joy. It's a rainy day though so that is kinda neat.

I love the elephants too. Don't appear overworked to me but you, on the other hand, are likely very overworked today at that brary....

Hope you are feeling better or at least hope you have tomorrow off so you can feel better.
