Re: Artist's Retreat

[bookcrazI]

okay.... she is knocking on the sun room door... any door just a door... with a person behind it....

[KenzieJo]

haha alright.

Jac: I look away from my painting, walking to the door confused. I open it to see Penny. "Oh, sorry, didn't realized Id locked it." I give a little laugh, "So how are you feeling? better?"

[Charlie]

Lauren-

"I only fainted because of the gun. I was fine." I defended. "Plus I know when to stop, I know my limits." Those were either hurting myself or I got so tired, I couldn't lift my arms or legs.

[bookcrazI]

Penny: I nodded and entered. I had a bag full of my art supplies at my side. I blushed a bit as he looked at my apparel. " Not good enough to have energy to change out of my pjs though.." I sighed.

[KenzieJo]

Jon: I roll my eyes. "Not being able to make it back to your room is not a good thing." I say, "I wouldn't call it a limit."

Jac: I just shrug. "Doesn't matter, As long as your up to your art again." I flash her a smile, before turning back to walk back to my painting. Grabbing the deep blue I paint the sky, mixing it with the purples and pinks.

[bookcrazI]

Penny: I take out a canvass and lay out my supplies. I start painting the canvass completely black, well a black green.

[KenzieJo]

Jac: I begin painting faces in the sky, watching over the horizon. Some laughing some scowling. I step on a small stool to reach the top corner, balancing carefully while I paint a caring face, tears barely visible in its eyes.

[bookcrazI]

Penny: I start painting the giant bloody maw of the cat. The tan brown mingled with dark brown then covered in a browny red. I shuddered.

[KenzieJo]

Jac: Almost slipping I go down to grab the green paint, I spot Penny's painting and frown. "Is that what you saw last night?" I ask.

[bookcrazI]

Penny: I nodded slowly. I had just started to paint the eyes.

(g2g)

[KenzieJo]

bye

Jac: I leave Penny to her work going back to my own. Concentrating hard I finish the upper corner's face, smiling at the work.

[Charlie]

Lauren-

"I made it back to my room, changed came down here, and danced for an entire CD it was great." Lauren smiled.


Russ-

I warmed up playing mountains of mourne it was a great way to practice picking and fingerings.

[KenzieJo]

Jon: "Well then, show me what you got. I'm sure your refreshed after your sleep on the hard ground." I stroll over the wall, leaning against it and watching her expectantly.

[lily "the author" hanna]

(hey, is it the next day bak at the cabin? o.o)

[KenzieJo]

yup. Jacs painting, Russ is by the firepit? and our other two charries are chattin.

[lily "the author" hanna]

ok, is it ok if I have Aj go paint and run into Jac? :S

[Charlie]

Lauren-

I was not used to perform in front of strangers, or people I didn't know extremely well. But I nodded. I rolled up her pants so they wouldn't get in the way, and put the CD to song three.
I got into her beginning position as the song started to play. The song was Mountains of Mourne. I started off doing a skater spin, and went into a leap, hitting her splits in mid air.
The words flowed through me,the song emulated in my dance. Every part of me was effected from her fingers to toes. My face showed the emotion of the song.
The dance was choreographed but an onlooker would never know, dance was in my blood. It was a second nature, and it was my goal to never let a routine seem choreographed.
I ended the rigorous routine of jumps, leaps, turns, and attitudes. I was on the ground my knees pulled up to my chest. I looked at him as the next song started.
"I feel very refreshed after my sleep." I laughed.

[Charlie]

(yeah russ is at the fire pit writing a song)

[lily "the author" hanna]

or I could have her find Russ writing his song ^^

[KenzieJo]

fine by me

Jon: I clapped a bit. "I guess. But I still assure a bed is better." I stand straight stretching, "Now that Ive gotten a show I think Im gonna find some food." I turn to the door. "Like to join me?"

Jac: I continue to the next face, this one cruel. Its features are twisted and dark as it looms above the horizon. The glint in its eye become lifelike as I paint.

[Charlie]

Lauren-

I took off my lyrical shoes, and slipped on flip flops, "Sure." I said, turning the music off. I wasn't breathing to heavily, but my stomach grumbled extremely loudly it sounded like a bear.


Russ-

I finished Mountains of Mourne and started a song called Castles in the Air, it helped me warm up on chords. I closed the eyes, and sang the lyrics in my fairly deep bass voice, letting my fingers find the strings. I had these two songs memorized by heart.

[lily "the author" hanna]

Hmm...

Aj: I walk down to the where I think the paint rooms are supposed. I tub at the strap of my portfolio, trying to remember the last time I'd painted on my own. Not for a while, that's for sure. I mouth Eminem lyrics as I start to open the door : And I am, whatever you say I am...I look up, freezing. Oh. I should've knocked. I wasn't the only one in here. I could make my way out quietly--
The door shuts closed with a very audible click. I wince.

[KenzieJo]

Jac: I hear the door click, pulling my brush away from my canvas I turn. "Oh hello AJ, don't mind me." I look out through the glass walls, it couldn't even be noon yet. "Isn't this a great time for painting." I comment, going back to my own work, finishing the final details on the face.

[KenzieJo]

on: I laugh, "You've worked up an appetite. Good, I make a mean pancake and eggs." We make our way to the kitchen, me humming a nameless tune under my breath

[lily "the author" hanna]

Aj: I pull out an earbud so I can hear him better. "Um, yeah. I guess it is." I nod a little, hesitating before moving over to where there's a large flat printing table. I use it just to set out a few of my pieces of work to refresh my memory. The first thing I pull out is a charcoal of my baby turtle back home. I half smile a little. Josh promised he'd take care of her; she'd be okay. I set it aside and pull out the next one. It was a messy quick paint-to-paper picture of a corner of my room. I compare it to my almost done turtle and slip it back into my portfolio. I think Rita could use some work. I go up to another easel across from Jac. I glance up at him from where I face him before digging in my art bag for an old charcoal stick. I find a nice one and set my picture of Rita up on the easel.

[Charlie]

Lauren-

"What are you humming?" I asked following him. Pancakes and eggs sounded delightful. I could practically smell them.


Russ-

I finished the song and looked at everything surrounding me. Inspiration hit. I started picking out a few chords, and wrote them down. This would be a productive morning.
