Awww you're so sweet! And I totally get you - depression and art do not cooperate for me either. I hope that the blanket lifts enough for you to take a crack at that Amber reference though - I would love to see it!

A work in progress oil painting of Josefin Talegard choreo slide from her free skate to Celine Dion. A burst of light is emanating from her chest. Sunny tits.

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

The Cup of China schedule is basically just my work hours but on my days off which feels like cosmic retribution for calling my hobby an unpaid part time job

The original and best white horse, leaping up a wintry Uffington Hill. This picture was taken before the first stage of its restoration.

I'm not watching the gala because I had things to do and I love seeing peoples out of context posts about it - gives me just a lil taste of what I put my non skating friends through. Idk why the Chipmunks are bad but I trust you guys and I'm on your side about it. #GPFRA
