I've been invited!

[Val]

I have been invited to attend a juried art show/competition! It's called 'The Art Project' to be held at Exhibition Place in Toronto. No art from me     but have never been to this type of event, so should be interesting.
Unfortunately it means I will miss today's class, which I have never willingly missed.     Actually I wasn't going to go as my 'comfy' painter jeans were dirty...so Jane bought me a pair. So I guess that means I'm committed! 
So Dennis....I guess this means you don't have to go at 1/3 speed....you can go at 1/2 speed!    (sorry guys)

Have fun Val. Don't feel bad I will not be in class today either. So everyone else will have fun without our witty personality.

AW Gee Looks like today I will be teaching myself how to paint

Awwwww. I may not bring my witty personality, but you can teach me how to paint today Dennis. Have fun, Val!!  Next time they can expect art from you. Right???  So sis bought you the new jeans. When are you buying sis that shiny new clear plastic ruler we heard about? I believe there was to be a perspective house involved?

I should have passed the invitation. Most disappointed. AND only one fellow that used w/c-acrylics.
Dennis and Nolan, you may pride yourselves in knowing that any one of your students would have showed up 90% of the 'artworks' there.
Then I wake to see this! My faith is restored!       Dennis, I knew you would not be alone in class...even if no one else turned up...you could still teach Nolan a thing or two.    I feel he really needs to work on his w/c...after all, haven't seen nary a one since his cosmos! 
Sarah...I am going to buy that ruler...the one I bought down in Guatemala...made in Mexico and boy do they use some weird markings!
