Thinking of Change at Home

[kybearfuzz]

One thing I love to do when I go home is marvel at how much my sister changes her home. Being currently unemployed, she has a lot of free time and not a lot of money to spend, but she likes to stay busy. So she has been inexpensively painting and changing her home. She painted her small kitchen, painted the cabinets and changed the fixtures. The overall effect is impressive. Her kitchen looks new, done very inexpensively, and I'm jealous.

Now I'm itching to do the same things to my house. I've lived in it for twelve years almost and have done very little to it decoratively other than painting rooms. My kitchen looks dated, but a complete overhaul isn't in the budget, but doing the simple things that my sis did to her kitchen would work on mine. It's definitely a project to consider when the holidays are done.

I had planned on drawing up some ideas of how I'd like the kitchen to look last night, but I got distracted watching TV and started doodling this archer instead. I like the look and I think I'll use him in a future comic book issue.

Happy Monday everyone. If you can muster it. :)

Maybe you should ask your sister if she wants to tackle the project of repainting your kitchen!

Heh... don't think I haven't given that some consideration... :)

Likebutton on the archer. The main goal of his outfit is distraction, rather than protection, eh? ;)

LOL... sure! I can imagine that people get hypnotized by that wonderful forest of fur and get taken down.

... oooh... or maybe those are Cupid's arrows... :)

Ooo, clever! He'd look good with wings.

LOL... that can be arranged! :)

nice... i so wish I could re-do our kitchen and bring it up from the 50s. It would have to involve knocking out a wall and moving the laudry room... definitely not in the budget for many years to come :P

I often wish I had the money to do a major renovation like that. :)

I love that Archer drawing!

Thanks! I'll update him and use him in a future story somewhere. I imagine he'd look good in color :)

Your archer is really amazing.

Thanks! Hmmm... maybe it's time for a NSFW cartoon of him :)

I won't tell you not to. ;-)

A few years ago I painted part of my kitchen using Ralph Lauren's 'Burning Umber' - really a deep red with a rich brown tinge ...matches my carpets. Painting in a decisive color can do a lot for your general spirits.
Love your 'doodles' ...this one is stunning. You have a great sense of gesture in your figures, and a real flair for coming up with original and sexy costumes. Looking forward to seeing this guy in a future comic!

I've got the itch now, I'll definitely have to paint.

And I'm glad you like the archer. I bet he'll look better in color :)
