It reminded me of Andy Warhol... www.andywarhol.net/images/Andy-Warhol.jpg ;-)
Seen in the cactus garden of Lanzarote.
I wish my eyes turned out more like crying mascara as opposed to joker-like.
Oh well. I like the lipstick on my finger anyway.
Woo, saw TOTW was ghetto lighting, the only kind I can obtain. HA
after O's i'll burn all my worksheets and books!!!
oh and if you noticed.. i'm in the picture actually
Things I had never done before I made these two nights ago:
-used TLS
-made donuts out of Sculpey
-baked any Sculpey project more than once
-made 1/12 miniatures
I've been admiring a lot of the awesome mini food I've been seeing on Flickr and wanted to try making some myself, but I always gave up on donuts before this because I didn't know how to make the frosting look like real frosting.
At last I found out about TLS and acquired a bottle, mixed in some paint I had sitting around, and frosted my donuts. =) I put a bit too much on this batch, so these are very messy donuts. (This picture is a better view of how messy the donuts came out. Frosting dripped down the sides and into the centers! OH NOES!)
Anyway I made some more stuff after this and was very pleased with the result, so I'm going to start selling it on Etsy!
The Pinwheel Galaxy (also known as NGC 5457) is a spiral galaxy about 27 million light years away in the constellation Ursa Major. The Galaxy Messier 101 was discovered by Pierre Méchain on March 27, 1781, and added as one of the last entries in Charles Messier catalog. It was the first "spiral nebula" identificada.Aunque extends 22 arcmin on photographs and quite bright, only the central region of this galaxy is visible in smaller, better if it is a low-power telescopes. M101 is the brightest member of a group of at least 9 galaxies.

Wish it were a little clearer, taken through the double-paned windows at work. The birds dig through the seed on the feeder above and whatever drops the squirrels snatch up.
Charles Messier described the 88th entry in his 18th century catalog of Nebulae and Star Clusters as a spiral nebula without stars. Of course the gorgeous M88 is now understood to be a galaxy full of stars, gas, and dust, not unlike our own Milky Way.

Working for Flock and working around the house does not afford me the time to clean my room, it seems. That, and I have been trying to get some other things to work today, so books and manuals and parts are scattered around.
Check the notes for details.
