lay down your weary tune
Aug. 28th, 2015 06:29 pmI made a woman look really tall in the drawing, though she was actually pretty short in real life.
I saw a guy who's shirt said "keep the change, you filthy animal," and I know it's cruel to bring up Christmas in the week of the last summer concert, but really, Home Alone is like Die Hard in that it's not really about Christmas, it just happens to be set around that time.
"Lily is a grasshopper in a dog's body." Lucy was a lot calmer. I'm wondering if Lucy and Lily are a reference to Little, Big.
Someone else said that Lily is part King Charles cavalier and part something else and part lemur and I have no idea how lemurs actually act.
A woman was wearing a bracelet made out of some kind of blue material on one wrist, and on the other wrist, she had an intricate bracelet tattoo.
So even with the incidental music by Felix Mendelssohn, which mostly plays between the acts and before the play begins, there are also two songs sung by the faeries and music for Pyramus and Thisbe, A Midsummer Night's Dream is not a very long play. I wasn't surprised this time, but I was surprised last time.
Mendelssohn wasn't the only composer to write incidental music for plays, his is just the most famous, mostly because Victoria used the Wedding March for her own wedding and now everyone uses it.
Pyramus and Thisbe more than made up for the lack of inept costumes (Thisbe actually wore a dress, Pyramus had some armor and a knight's helmet, the lion had an actual mane and not just a cat-ear headband, the wall looked like a wall) with half-assed overacting. Or half-assed underacting in the case of a lion. As for Nick Bottom, he doesn't do anything half-assed, he's just an ass.
Also, we had an actual moon so nobody needed to wield a cane.
One of the players in Pyramus and Thisbe did a Hadouken when he decided he wanted to be a knight.
And Thisbe kept removing her wig like it was a hat.
I tried to draw a guy with hair like The Deceiver from Myth II but the train was super-bouncy this time.
Chelsea is an art history student who once took a watercolor class and spent her time painting tomatoes (not awesome, she says), and like Carolyn wants to see a series of Simpsons photographs and it made her think of Marcel Duchamp, and she thinks that the world has moved on to Bob's Burgers. I explained that one shot was too glitched out to tell what episode it was (I believe it was the one with the pigeon) and one is just so generic that I can't tell what episode it's from. There will always be ways to watch The Simpsons but if a mantis native to Madagascar goes extinct and all the photographs of them are copyrighted, then we're fucked. We don't care that I messed up the graffiti at the SMFA because I'm probably the only person in the entire world who remembers it.
She says I could make a mural out of the people I draw.
She'll keep that photograph forever and I'll keep my drawing of her forever.
Mostly she's an art appreciator and not an artist. I spent more time with musicians, actors, and revolutionaries than with visual artists this summer.
It's hard to keep a steady hand on the frigging wacky train. So Macy's shirt looks messed up.
Macy and Jake are actors. Macy recently played Margaret, the one who pretends to be Hero, in Much Ado About Nothing. Once Macy got a caricature done in New York City and it was February and frigging freezing. Otherwise, this is the first time either of them were drawn. She noticed the insults on my t-shirt and they were at the play too.
Macy was born in April 1999, so right after the Much Ado About Nothing in which someone I knew played Hero in ended. Also, it was in Gallipolis, which does not mean city of roosters and is not actually the Kathmandu equivalent of Kathmandu (that would be Timbuktu, of course), but is probably a byword for "ass end of nowhere" on a localized scale for everywhere in Ohio, except for Gallipolis, where the byword for ass end of nowhere is Leavittsburg.
Burning Question: if the world were somehow inverted, what would Sweden be like?
