Woman as Decoration
Sunday was the first Sunday that I missed ASSSSCAT since I've been here ... but I was babysitting so it was all for a good cause. Monday night Stephanie and I went to see Whiplash - we haven't been in quite a while - and it turned out to be a roast of Pete Holmes. So we only stayed for 45 minutes. Last night I finished reading Woman as Decoration by Emily Burbank (1917). I was trying to resolve how to make a series of four small paintings more conceptual instead of just pretty and static. I found Emily's book online and now have a fabulous idea (hopefully). I'm just waiting for my supplies from Dick Blick to arrive and of course, my paints from home. Tonight I have to take my macbook into the Apple store because there's something wrong with the battery. And then I'm going to a bar for a birthday party - 99 cent pints! Whoo.
