Update: April 9th 2015

Lately Adventure Buddy has been extremely busy doing spring cleaning and fixing up his house before it gets crazy hot so we haven't been able to go on adventures. :-/ But, I have been able to do some paintings and reading. If you read Anne Bishop books, I just finished the latest book in the Others series, Vision in Silver. It was very well written and I absolutely love the characters and the plot. It really pulls you in, if you haven't read it you should. The first book in the series is called Written in Red. Definitely check it out. Now I'm starting a series by Morgan Rhodes (spelling??) the first book of the series is called Falling Kingdoms. I've only read a few chapters so far but it's very intriguing. Ok now on to the paintings. I went and bought some bigger canvases than what I usually work with. Here's what I painted:

This one is called Wolf Song. I used the glow in the dark stars and moon for the actual stars and moon and I painted them with glitter paint and then went over them with glow in the dark paint. Now they glow like actual moon and stars. The wolf's breath is glitter paint as well. For the wolf, I printed out a silhouette of this wolf on a rock howling and cut it out and traced it. I'm very proud of this piece. It's my favorite of anything I've painted so far.

This painting, I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do. The canvas is very large, a 24x36(??) I think. It had more words on it but some of the letters of the other words moved around when i painted it. Fearless was the only word that didn't have any letters move. But when I peeled the sticky letters off some of the paint went with them so...but I think it gives it a little more character. Also, it should be noted that this thing took 24 hours to dry completely! 

Now I need a black light for this painting to be all psychedelic! LOL anyway, I hope you liked my paintings. Hopefully adventure buddy will be done with his house work soon and we can go on an adventure! 

Update

I know I haven't posted anything in a while but with winter comes limited adventures and work has been super crazy lately. I have done a few paintings lately and it did snow here recently so that was fun. Alright let's see, the last time I updated I told you guys that I was working on a Pokemon painting for myself and I finally finished it.

Then I got a leaf shaped hole punch and did a few seasonal tree paintings for a friend. 

And then it snowed. I'm not going to put ALLLLLL the pictures I took during the snow on here because I took a lot but I will put some of my favorites up. 

And I've been working on this one painting lately and I finally finished it and decided to frame it. 

And that's about all I've been doing lately other than bumming around on Netflix and reading. Winter is a very dull time as far as adventures go because it's WAAAAAAY too cold to do much of anything.  Now that it's starting to warm up again maybe I'll have some better updates. 

Paintings

Adventure Buddy and I haven't been able to go on any adventures the past couple of weeks due to colds and life getting in the way so instead, I've gotten back to painting a little. I've had the idea for these paintings for a little while and decided to actually put them on a canvas. I'm not sure where the inspiration came from but I was really excited about doing these paintings. I painted a picture for each of my besties and started one for me. They are Pokemon themed and are personalized for each of us. Ok first up is E's painting. E is a psychic pokemon trainer and an Eevee evolution lover so when it came down to it, Espeon was what I decided to go with.

Now Wanen has a love for Magikarp. He's here favorite because he's stupid and can't do anything but then you evolve him and everyone else better run!

And that has been what I've been doing with my bored self lately. I started a painting for myself but I haven't finished it yet. I hope you liked these, the girls certainly did! :) 

Tellus Museum

So Adventure Buddy and I decided on a warmer kind of adventure yesterday since it was nice and cold outside. We decided on the Tellus Museum in Cartersville, Ga. I've been before but he hasn't so we took a trip out there. First of all, if you are a member at other certain museums you can get in free.  We chose to see the show at the planetarium because I didn't get to do that when I went. It was a pretty neat experience, you go into this room with stadium seating and there is this large dome thing you sit under and the "tour guide" can use computer programing to bring up the night sky, show you certain constellations and even take you WAAAAAAAY out past our own universe. It was completely worth the $2.50 extra and I recommend it when you have the time! After the show we walked through the museum. They have a trains, planes and automobiles area, a "kids" area (that we had more fun in than most of the kids there) that you can play with things like gravity, sound waves, weather and all kinds of things. Then we went on to the fossils and then minerals. For the $14 for an adult, it's completely worth it. They also have a little area where you can "mine for gems" and "dig for fossils" which we didn't do even though I wanted to. I highly recommend this museum to waste a few hours in. Now on to picture time!


                  Even the dinosaurs in the holiday spirit! And the museum has a sense of humor!

The bathroom had this cool little built in step stool. It was funny because Adventure Buddy always makes fun of me for being so short....

                                             Adventure Buddy and I wanted to be an astronauts!

                              Two T-Rexs trying to hold hands didn't work out so well HAH!

                            I seriously thought this said the "Lame" Triceratops....poor guy.

                                                  I think there's something behind me....

                                                          Now I'm a T-Rex. Rawr!!

Well I hope you enjoyed our little adventure. If you're ever in the Cartersville area I recommend you check out the Tellus Museum! 

What's Shakin?

I know it's been a little while since I've posted anything but these last few weeks work and life has been absolutely CRAZY and Adventure Buddy and I haven't had time to do any kind of adventuring. Hopefully we'll be able to go on an adventure soon though! For now, how about some pictures from Halloween??
