Busy busy! First of all, I've been working tonight on the fish-mask idea ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
golden_meliades gave me *pats self on back for not having to look up exact spelling of "meliades"*, which it turns out is a VERY GOOD and fun idea! I have two designs; one with koi and one with male betta (Siamese fighting fish). The bettas were easy because I have some of those. No shortage of models there. :-) The koi though...those were something I wanted to research. As an artist I find that it's one thing to think you know what something looks like, and an entirely different thing to know what it looks like.
*pouts*
Yeah! Aside from stupid tv and various Middle East woes, not much else penetrates my shell of indifference these days. I took a lovely ride along the banks of the Niagara River with Char yesterday. Really, a VERY neat bike trail that we have hardly ever used (largely because one has to cross the border...which these days involves showing a passport and getting quizzed by sceptical-looking border agents...yuk). We'll have to start making that a regular trip though, because PRETTY. Everything's just greener and lovelier and nicer-looking from the Canadian shore.
Back to work! When in doubt, make stuff. That's MY motto.
