Watch this oil painting from the children’s book “Grandpa Smiles” come to life in just over 1 minute (time lapse)
I painted this art for a children’s book about how my dad has looked over my son in spirit all of his life. I talked quite a bit about my dad in yesterday’s blog post. Tonight I’m feeling weary. I was forced to do a lot of strenuous landscaping work because we got a “violation” on our inspection. It’s been very hot here, and when it’s not been hot (and buggy), it’s been raining tropical downpours that leave everything soaked. I tried to catch up with things before the inspection, but I got bit and stung by a swarm of ants and had an allergic reaction that put me out of commission for days. I’m still not 100%. But, I managed to get about half of the toughest landscaping jobs done. I know I can finish it before the deadline and avoid getting a fine.
So anyway, it’s been a tiring day and I’m going to make today’s blog post very short. Goodnight, dear friends.
