The above picture is an oil pastel painting I did. I'm not sure if I've written this before but I've recently officially joined a group of oil pastelist. The name of the group is The Oil Pastel Society. I first learned of them through the WetCanvas message board. The board is primarily populated by artists.

MORNING COMMUTE:
Today, I got on the #2 bus. The driver bore a striking resemblence to L.L. Cool J. The other thing I noticed about the driver was the he was not wearing an MTA issue baseball cap. I suppose they can wear what ever cap they want as long as it is blue.

This morning I was shocked when I went to the 7-11 and found that they were out of Mountain Dew!!! I had to improvise for my caffeine fix. I bought a 1 liter bottle of Pepsi instead.

The light rail train was on time. It's being driven by a (gasp) woman! The light rail shuttle bus was on time. It was also sparsely populated.

UPDATE OF THE DAY: Sowebo Poster
The poster I did for the Sowebo Arts Festival is now hanging up at a place called Spoons Coffee House. The Coffee House is located at 24 East Cross Street. So ladies and gentlemen, you can now go out and see the poster I created live and in person!! Yes, decide for yourself, am I an artist or a poser? Unfortunately, you do not have long to decide. It will be hanging up at Spoons Coffee House until May 28th. On the 29th it goes on display at the festival.

Right now, I'm happy that the giant collage poster has not fallen apart. Thus, I will not do my yearly lament over the fact that it was not chosen yet again, for display over at The Charles movie theatre....

WHAT I'M WEARING:
Today, I have on a long sleeve cornflower blue pullover, jeans, and beige canvas tennis shoes.
