Sharon asked for a photo, but rather than wait three weeks to fill the camera and see if the bleeping thing even turns out, I spent an hour with a mirror and some paints.

Sharon is a sick fuck, sometimes.

I'm sorry I forced you to stand for an hour in front of the mirror doing a self-portrait of your eye injury. I am a sick fuck.

Nono, it's some vintage 60s make-up mirror with a fold-out easel that sits on the table. I think it was my sister's when she was going through her astronaut's wife phase.

Hopefully it was therapeutic sitting-in-front-of-the-mirror?

Just remembering the glee with which you made me up (gotta say, I'd never been a canvas for Prismacolors before, but it so worked) to simulate the aftermath of my Jedi persona's interrogation....

You could have a whole second career in the art department of horror movies, y'know...

I think it was the transparency that worked so well for the bruising, etc. That nasty banana green undertone.

Nah. It itches just a bit, but I'm betting that's because I keep pulling down my lower lid to look at it. Also the real thing is much redder - the scan went sort of orange.

Well, I'm glad it's not orange, 'cuz that would make your eye REALLY evil, and that would give me nightmares an' shit.

I already do that anyway, dear.

Well, yeah, but they're FUZZY nightmares, they're not ORANGE nightmares.

Well, except for that ONE thing. OK, fine. I'm obviously in some sort of denial 'bout the nightmares. But, y'know, EYES. Orange eyes! We're talking whole new level of terror.

I find that picture cool but disturbing. Maybe you and Sauron should get together.

Obviously, because I was thinking of you when I painted it.

I'm tempted to ask if I can have this as an icon, but even I know that would be going too far. ;)

Or perhaps we could have it put on t-shirts for our next trip to Disney.

Would that be an "icon" or an "eye-con?"

If you can stand it looking back at you, by all means, make an icon.

Eye-con???

KA-REN! Grooooooannnnnn

You should work with paint more. I am enjoying this picture. Especially the fast-moving boobies with the zoom-motion blurs trailing behind them.

I like paint.
