Blorange for APR, anyone got an ark?

It's slightly wet around here,

actually it's bloomin pourin!!

Not too bad here

Water is starting to meet in the middle of the road now.

The water is starting to come up our driveway,

it's okay though, we are much higher up.

The problem is that nothing will dry.

My canvas painting is soggy and I couldn't finish that,

so I thought I would do a little water colour.

It wouldn't dry so I got the hairdryer

and did it too hard so the paint went sploosh and mooshy.

This is the canvas painting I started here, I have painted in the darks

but can't do the lights yet, so it is a bit dreary at the moment

and even though it looks black the background is actually blue.

It was going to be for the blorange, but no chance now.

Finally I decided to just muck around with some water colours,

a hair dryer and a bit of attitude and 'stunned mullet goldy' was born.

I was playing with the Silks too but I don't know if it is the weather or not

but my sakura pens didn't like drawing over the Silks.

He's actually a lot brighter than this but the old lights don't help much in the rain. 

The lights make the mica in the paint stand out.

No pretty sparkles when you scan in : (

It's not the best entry to put in APR this week for blorange, 

that's blue'n'orange, but on a brighter note, my little miss

decided to play along as well and here is her entry

for blorange.

Let's hope this rain will finally go away soon and I can get back to painting,
for now I'm going to sit on the couch with a cup of coffee
and watch movies, what else can you do on days like this?

Why don't you hop on over to Jenn's
Artist's Play Room and see what
the others have done for blorange.
