Artists Playroom - cheating a little

I wasn't going to enter

the Artists Playroom this week

as I was so busy

with family life

and finishing a painting

that goes to a show on Saturday.

Hey we all cut it fine from time to time,

I just do it all the time.

I was just sitting and waiting 

for some paint to dry,

you know,

that exciting time,

sitting and waiting,

waiting some more

and then there's the,

I'll just try the next bit

and splodge, it all melts together,

because you didn't wait long enough

and you now have to wait even longer.

So now I am waiting

even longer for the paint to dry

before putting on the final

touches and I decided to rifle

through my books to see

if by some miracle I had actually

done a monochrome painting that you haven't seen yet.

.Okay, so technically it isn't monochrome

but if you think about it

the fish is mainly orange

and orange is made up of red and yellow

so really it is all orange.

All accept for the eye,

but you wouldn't want him to be blind would you.

See, that's orange, no red there, no sir,

just very dark orange and

some very light orange. 

It's called artistic licence

and I'm sticking to it.

I've managed to waste enough time now

and my paint is dry,

so while I go and finish my painting

why don't you go over to Jenns

Artist's Playroom

and see some other fantastic

monochrome pictures.
