My new love/hate website.
I could hit Randomize for hours, trying to find just the perfect layout of words and fonts. I think I was literally driving myself a little bonkers.
I know, I know, I'm already there, no need to go farther!
I was attempting a new layout for a matching painting to go beside my Sweet Family painting I did last week. Eventually, I pried my mouse away from the randomize button, with about 8 layouts I couldn't seem to decide between. I sent a desperate shout-out by email to a bunch of friends. We narrowed it down to this one:
Sorry to all my friends!
And then I went downstairs to put it on the projector, and on the canvas, only to find out that the font was just TOO small!! O M G.
Instead of driving my friends bonkers as well, I just went back to Wordle solo and hit random a few more zillion times, making sure my words were big enough and I ended up with a similar font as the other painting.
I was aiming for a big S on one side, with a list of S words that describe our family on the other side. I couldn't get the S big enough for me, so I ended up doing two separate pictures. One of a S solo, and one of all the S words.
Yeah, I should have just done that to begin with. Nothing like taking the long hard road....
And then came the painting, and the squinting, and the cramping of fingers and arms.
I made sure to have more white colored words this time.
Here it is next to the other one.
Finally.
Finally, that wall doesn't look so bare any more. I'd show you the rest of that wall, but that would mean I would have to clean.......and I have Christmas crafts to make.
Screw cleaning.
