05 Apr a DIY and a Laugh and a Boy
As promised, a few little projects.
{title illustration - Garance Dore}
I sprayed some gold.
I sprayed some white.
I painted some black.
Easy.
Cheap.
Fun.
Tres bien.
Oh and I have to show you this.
My daughter is kind of a photography/computer genius.
She takes old paintings and morphs her friends into them using Photoshop.
Hilarity.
And edit…one more…my little Mac attack just woke up from his nap- yes waaay too late at almost 5 o’clock, which means he’s be in bed at like, I don’t know, 10!
Hell.
But… heck he’s adorable.
