It's art!

I will be starting on a new canvas tonight - for the 3rd time! Yes, it is the same canvas that I've attempted to complete 2 times already and will make a 3rd attempt in just a few moments. I know you probably have absolutely NO IDEA what I'm trying to explain - so let me show you in pictures with fabulous captions . . . . ready? here we go . . .

First attempt {apparently I had just started - it was nowhere near completion!}
I really do blame myself - what other idiot would leave an array of wet paint within reach of a budding artist?

"Hudson, did you do this?"
His reply, "It's art!"
Yeah sure, so what am I suppose to say to that one!?

Second attempt {got a little further this time} Again, my fault. If you are going to leave the wet paint out - TRY LOCKING the door! You really can't see it - but he tried mimicking the green dots with blue dots on the sides - see it?? He did that with his finger! Smart kid, I must give him some credit!

This time the conversation went like this,
"Hudson Wyatt, did you do this!!!!???" I really screamed this time.
"Uhmmmm, uhmmmm," he says.
"Hudson, this shouldn't be something you have to think about - I don't care what your answer is, you're in trouble!" And yes, I'm still screaming.
"Be nice!" He screams back.

Again, I ask - what do you say to that!

Yes, he tried licking the paint! Kid is on a permanent fast, but will eat paint - don't ask! And do you notice the paint on his shirt - that was from ANOTHER time!! Ask me, just ask me - Have I learned my lesson?? Apparently he hasn't, but have I - obviously NOT! I still leave wet paint out in an unlocked room - it's a free for all!!!

He is showing me his finger - how he did the dots on the side.

Here lately, I remind myself how I felt when my mother yelled at me. And I will tell you that it really beat me down and I hated the way she made me feel. I honestly think it is one of the worst things I do. I'm sooo trying to beat the cycle and not continue the same trends. Now, don't get me wrong, I did threaten to cut off his fingers if I found another canvas with paint on it - he laughed - even my kids don't take me serious.

I didn't like the way that one was turning out anyways - he did me a favor.
