They don't even know who Banksy is!

Love
something I saw while looking down on Jackman's birthday which , of course, is Valentines day!
I am beginning to think the words are going to play a greater role than originally planned. In the past I have always used text as a means of texture with select words exposed engaging the analytical. sometimes the words confuse and sometimes they offer greater understanding of content. With the objective of maintaining some level of perpetual discomfort I am letting this happen on it's own and through the discourse with my assistants....including the lilliputians....mostly with them it is through observation, I see them working in much the same way that I do, only I sometimes stop prior to exhausting my supplies and most times I clean my brushes.
This is the piece Julie was working on.........verbs.
So, after Rachel squared off the phrases in whit out, Julie squared off all the verbs on another piece using a fine point sharpie. Don't think I wasn't doing anything...I was reading aloud the introduction to the 1917 pocket reference of FAULTY DICTION!This was no easy task, this reference MUST be orated in a heavy british tongue! I was sweating, It is much more difficult entertaining assistance than actually squaring off phrases and verbs. Good thing we started drinking wine about this time!

getting ready to travel!This has been successfully rolled to make room for february's sheet...actually I think the next one is a tablecloth. it's a little bigger than a twin flat. and a bit more rigid!
while the lilliputians were working on the base coat of sheet number two, Rachel squared off phrases on a 2.5 dish towel piece using whiteout. It sparked a conversation about who invented whiteout. Rachel thought it was Lenny Kravitz's mom. Alfred sad is was Michael Nesbith's mom. He was in the Monkee's. Lenny Kravitz is also in the music industry, huh. Funny how no one knows the mom's name. Apparently she was a secretary and got fed up correcting typing errors. I think her product was called liquid paper which is still in existence. White Out is a far superior correcting fluid. 
hard at work! I am a slave driver when it comes to assistance! they are a little messy so its a good thing the precious surfaces are protected. They apply the paint and gesso so furiously it allows for a more rigid yet flexible surface after the 4 hours it takes the thick application to dry. They never lose interest, even though they are painting the same spot with the same color over and over and over and over , they persist until the paint is gone!! This makes me think it is not the end product they are interested in but the PROCESS, the journey. And they do Not clean their brushes! I'm gonna have to call a staff meeting to address this!
