Today's #EstateSale score? I have been wanting a #LibraryStepChair since the first moment I saw one!

Today's #EstateSale find? Oh, just a fifty dollar block of paper for a buck! 😱 #ArchesWatercolor

You mean your dad doesn't have a right hand drive '68 #MorrisMini? I'm a middle aged man, but I'm also the kid working the pedal to help bleed the brakes. 😂

It's too hot to paint outside, so I did another weirdly illustrated CD album cover. 🤷🏼‍♂️ #GaryNuman #Splinter
If he was going for "weird dude from a horror movie" in the original photograph, I think I nailed it. 😂

This week was pretty good for #thrifting #CDs. A Perfect Circle, Men At Work, Prince, Simon & Garfunkel, Johnny Cash, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, and Oingo Boingo.

Today's #thrift score. I grew up with these bowls. One of the small ones is missing, but the big salad bowl and 3 small ones is still a good deal. Oh yeah, today yellow was $2.79!
I also found a half dozen decent CDs.

My first real #CrowGifts! I guess I need to up my game. I left a piece of apple instead of just boring old peanuts, and was rewarded with these two small pieces of granite. I will treasure them. 🥰

I don't know why I thought putting in grass WOULDN'T be tedious drudgery.. I was very much mistaken. I'll add depth later, but first I have to paint 12 feet of background turf.

I can't decide if my neighborhood #crows have been hanging around so much because they recognize​ their brethren in my new #mural, or if it's just because I'm outside and they want peanuts... 😂 It's probably the peanuts.

I've finally reached the most dreaded spot in painting my #mural.. scaled details. Some tiny #LupineFlowers came up today. Now I'm going to have to make them bigger (and more accurate🤦🏼‍♂️) as they get closer.

Took advantage of the gloomy day, (and a break from my current #mural) to start on my next one.. and bring the sky down onto my garage door.

I think someone at #chipotle skipped a step with my #guacamole. At least they took the pit out..? 🤷🏼‍♂️😂

He's got a ways to go yet, but #Paragon has appeared on the shore of my #mural.

It rained, and the power was out for a few hours, but I had pizza for lunch, and a free lavender coffee. #HappyBirthdayToMe #ThisIs53

Blocked in the cliff color last time. Today is back to working on the #sea and #shore.

"Back by popular demand!" The Korean Senior Center harmonica class playing the national anthem. #LAKings #GKG

I don't know where this #squirrel found an entire slice of pizza, but he wasn't sharing.

I appreciate that my crows use my birdbath. Not a huge fan of their leftovers though.

Got the sky about 95% finished. Today I'm blocking in the sea.

Grips.. maybe? Did you mean grips? Rips isn't exactly a selling point..

Someone left the Ella Fitzgerald CD in the #Bentley too long!
(I like #Queen, but yes I bought it for the bit. 😂)
April 10, 2025 at 9:42 PM
I've seen people line up for less. . The thrift store has 6 crates of #Disney #droid #popcornbuckets 😂

I'm trying to finish the sky today, there's just so much of it! (he said, as if it wasn't his own design.)
It's unclear whether I can tear down the hanging phone cords, so they're getting paint too.

I'm glad I still haven't started on the foreground plants.. turns out my #ReadingNook is perched on a cliff overlooking the sea. So much work to do..

Even though my t-shirt drawer is full, I couldn't not #thrift this one for $1.39. 😂
