I will write a blog about how to make Bell Jars soon!

Is Paul McCartney DEAD?

My brother Matt was telling me about this film called Paul McCartney Really Is Dead: The Last Testament Of George Harrison. I was intrigued to watch it last night on Netflix and I was really in shock but then I felt bewildered ..... I don't know, it all makes sense but what the heck did I just watch? Now can I blame Faul for the breakup instead of Yoko Ono? This is a documentary worth watching .... or at least it will get you to revisit your music collection of all the Beatles album art and lyrics.

My 8 Hours with The Invisible Man

So I went to Texas Art Supply yesterday and this is what I bought for $20.00
The Invisible Man

To my surprise I opened the box and was SHOCKED that I had to hand paint all the organs and veins!
But Keanu was happy so I had to be too!

I can't resist his cute little face :)


This is what it looks like out of the box

I started painting the organs

hours into it I was almost done painting and glazing the organs

Then I had to hand paint the veins..... NOT FUN!!!!

Keanu helped me assemble and glue the skeletal part ... but I had super glue all OVER my hands :)

I was so excited to almost finish
I started at 1pm and now it was 9pm
and his genital area forget it ... it kept falling down his legs :)

Yes .... I was DONE ...ooops!
I forgot to add the rib cage!!!
I said forget it ...leave it as is!!!

It looked really cool next to all my oddities!
I love it!

I LOVE IT!
Was it worth 8 hours YES and I had fun spending time with my Keanu :)

P.S. I bought my penis bones from the Evolution Store today!
I will share them when they get here!!!

SO BE IT!
