This is the Funniest Man in the World. Right around Chirstmas time, he told his family that he wanted to paint. He wanted to paint clouds.
So they got him the whole kit: easel, brushes, paints, canvases, smock, beret, drop cloth.
He was glad to show us his studio this evening when CB and I stopped for dinner.
I'm not sure why he wants to paint clouds, but that's what he wants. Oh, and he doesn't want to go outside and look at clouds and paint them,he just wants to imagine them and paint them.
We should all be glad that he wants to paint something as benign as clouds. When he brought out his canvas to show me, he was going on and on about what subject he wanted to paint and all I could think was "please, please don't let it be nudes"!
Whew.
Another bullet dodged.
Oh yeah. This is the same guy who owns the buffalo (there was a blog entry last year about them). The herd is down to 11. Those bastards aren't behaving so one by one they are being taken away and the rest of the herd never sees them again. The Funniest Man in the World says it's working.
The 11 left are becoming much better behaved.
