I was painting in a very bad light last night and this one became very Tretchikoff so I overpainted in a kind of orangey flesh colour to tone it down. Left the arrowish eye highlights on the original snap as these look a bit surreal. Lips are wrong, nose too long, etc. etc. etc.
Kooky has become rather shy again today and was in the wardrobe while I painted. Not v. interested in his breakfast. I shall have some in a minute. I am thinking about cheesy scrambled eggs on toast and a cup of tea. We shall see.
Romy and the punters due back today. I shall meet her to collect her defunct laptop. Last night there were a few with D and V, so fingers crossed! So far, no swine 'flu. Must be the only thing that hasn't happened. Yet.
