Monet Light
It’s the birthday of Monet… (another tribute)… and he was the original (and more authentic if you ask me) Painter Of Light. Monet studied the light in its passage… how it moved… what shadows it cast at what time of day. He was dedicated and a bit, obsessive… (ya think?).
And poor Randie… painting plans thwarted!
Does anyone at that art mart do any of the lifting, hauling and stocking other than Randie?
Have never seen Mouse, Grace nor Carol raise a finger to a box.
Nice laundry basket. Someone’s clothes dryer lint trap must be pretty clogged up.
She will overcome! Besides, it’s at times like these, when one’s creativity is being squashed, that it seems to flourish even more. I bet Randy comes up with an idea of something even better than what she originally planned!
Aww. Poor Randie can’t catch a break! <3
The final light of the day, sunset, is generally the most impressive light of all.
She can paint the awesomeness of that as her Monet tribute.
Unless, of course, there’s a blanket of fog covering her coastal town later in the day, as would be Randie’s luck.
Stick… Holiday bonus time… that’s when Grace “actually works…” or something that resembles working. And Randie would be lucky if the overcastness and/or fog isn’t lurking about.
Pete… flourishing amid disappointment! I like that… It could happen!
Astragali… yah… but she’ll be alright, especially when her paycheck shows up! Extra duckets!
Twink in the laundry, love it.
Doesn’t Randie know the ancient wisdom of “Let it go to voicemail”?
It seems that every time ya get a day off, and find something creative to do, making a living
jumps up and squashes your plans. Poor Randy, she probably wont get off work until long after sunset with daylight savings and all.
Nothing starts off a downhill day like a stinky cat butt sticking out at you!
Maybe Grace is a Monet fan and wanted time off to reflect?
mr. gull… he’s becoming more & more at home…
EofO… how ’bout it!
Squid… no chance of even an ounce of daylight for our hero!
Dada… Ha! I bet Grace is a fan of Monet! Afterall, his cheerful and bright paintings are right up her alley!
We’ve all been there, called in to work when we’d rather be doing something else. As a programmer, I’ve often been awakened in the middle of the night with news that one of my processes crashed. Hasn’t happened in awhile, knock wood…..
Btw, love the slam at the hack Kinkade. His stuff creeps me the heck out.
Monet… the use of paint to simulate pixels…. :^P (Joking, I’m joking! Put away the tubes of paint without squirting them at me!)
Seriously though, I used to suggest Monet to folks that were just getting started in computer graphics, back in the nineties. 🙂 His techniques worked well with the limited palettes of the time.
The Auld Grump
UWG…. “The Painter of Light”… (a title that Mr. Monet would better be a’fitted to)… lives in the Carmel area (at least some of the time)… he was busted not that long ago on a DUI charge in the Carmel area.
Grump… interesting … and I wouldn’t think of squirting paint at you! (toothpaste maybe, but not paint… it’s expensive!)
