If I don’t do my ballet homework everyday I get the music stuck in my head anyway. I’ve been going to sleep with the theme song to my plies exercise.

I started two new paintings today, having tentatively finished the other two yesterday. So far they are are sky blue and I like stetched canvas better than canvas board, using one of each because that’s what I have available right now. Also, I don’t do undercoating because I have to wait for it to dry before I really get to start, I guess, because that’s what I’m doing now and I’m impatient with the taped-up dancers ready to be traced. I put the canvases outside so they dry faster/maybe get some leaves or dirt stuck to them for subtext.
