Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Bees Splatter painting and and roasted asparagus

Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date! I reworked an older worker bee piece for the 'bees' theme (ACEO 2 1/2" x 3 1/2"). I turned it into a splatter painting with splashes of 'honey' in the background. I have included a progress photo as well.

Fish n Chip lunch

lobster bisque

 

halibut

Husband M, son K and I met up with husband M's 2 sisters and one of their sons a few week ago.  We walked to Kingsway Fish and Chips restaurant.  I had the lobster bisque soup and halibut with coleslaw.  We enjoyed scallop and shrimp appetizers which were so good, I forgot to take a photo. 

I do regret not ordering the cod fish as it was twice the size and $2 cheaper, go figure.  We go to another fish and chip place in our area where the cod is more expensive than the halibut.  In any case haddock is always the cheapest cut. 

Fascinating

 I thought this was fascinating.

Dog Poop business

 I saw on the news these enterprising young kids have started a dog poop scooping business.  They clean people's yards all over the city for a fee, and use their father's minivan to get around.  One kid is in college and the other sibling is in high school.  

My nephew in Arizona says they have businesses like that there too.  Who knew?

In progress

 This is my Cherry Blossom Spatter Painting based on a photo my sister took on a trip to Seoul recently. Let's call them cherry blossom faces.

It is an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3/12") on canvas in acrylic.
