"I wear a stetson now. Stetsons are cool."

I can no longer look at those cowboy silhouettes and not see the Doctor standing there.

The loops and circles of Gallifreyan text reminded me of peacock feathers.

Clara: But how is it doing that? How is that possible? It’s an oil painting. In 3D.
The Doctor: Time Lord art. Bigger on the inside. A slice of real time… frozen.

The original painting was a stack of stones in a zen garden-like setting. Had to use the worst small brush in the world. I'm bringing my own brushes from now on.

Latest painting. Not bad given how dark the room was. I had to fix the birds a bit at home because the lighting was so poor that I felt like I was painting in the dark. They are still crappy little birds, but whateva', overall the painting did what I wanted it to do. At first glance it is a rather sweet winter scene with birds and snow. That is, until you notice the sinister smiles of the snowmen.

“Maybe it’s snow that fell before. Maybe it’s snow that remembers how to make snowmen.” – The Doctor

The original painting had a wolf howling at the moon. The modification of a Weeping Angel was obvious.

“Fascinating race, the Weeping Angels. The only psychopaths in the universe to kill you nicely. No mess, no fuss, they just zap you into the past and let you live to death. The rest of your life used up and blown away in the blink of an eye. You die in the past, and in the present they consume the energy of all the days you might have had, all your stolen moments. They're creatures of the abstract. They live off potential energy.” – The Doctor

While at the event I was asked "What is that?"
I replied, "A sonic screwdriver."
"A what?"
"A sonic screwdriver. It's from Dr. Who."
"Who?"
"Yes. Doctor Who."
True story.

I went to a painting event again last night. Added my own spin to the painting but had to finish up some things at home because they didn't have small brushes. Can you find the Dr Who reference? 

Adding dots and patterns was my attempt at playing around with a style of folk art I had seen

It's bigger inside the painting.

Went to one of those hosted painting events where they supply paint, canvas and instructions. It was seriously fun to kick back and follow along! The event was hosted at a restaurant/bar so we were able to get drinks and snacks while we painted. Good times.
