Swimming at maroubra with another water nymph floating above and diving through a luxurious bed of sea grass, I felt completely at home. If only I could breathe underwater. I'm working on gills.

This is pretty nice. Reminds me of Barbara weir, but underwater.
Your gills are situated under your armpits. Breathe on alternate strokes, takes a bit of getting used to.

That green is nice.
I got sap green and arches paper.
The arches paper sucked it in and made it look dead.

Unlike yours.

damn colour-sucking paper. This one has about a million layers...bronzes, coppers, satin...anything shiny I could get my hands on. Acrylic often dies a horrible death on drying. I was a little bit worried about being compared to BW but I have doodled like this for as long as I can remember, and was quite shocked when I first saw a painting of hers. I thought..Hey! she's stolen my stroke. I'm happy to be an underwater storyteller.

well, that's your dreaming.
and grass is hers.
Maybe she saw your work....

I like the pretty and shiny layers.
I have a picture of that stuff, I will send it.
come over.
that will look good in the show.

there was a snapper in the seaweed bed yesterday.

okay.
You are supposed to go to here

http://thelittlebookroom.blogspot.com/

to see the rules, and then you write 8 random facts about yourself. (keep it clean for primetime viewing)
and then tag 8 people. heh.

I'll wager you dont have 8 people to tag, either. What a sad pair we are, alone in the playgound of blogland.

well, go forth, and a stream of poltely interested readers will then read your facts.
You could always tag totally random people, I guess.
