Now that i have added in those psychedelic wool dreads + ribbons and beads I am really starting to feel they are extensions of my spirit. I had kept them plain for a long time so that they could be considered acceptable at work but i found 90% of the time i was wrapping them up so they were out of sight anyway. So i decided to go ahead and start adorning my locks. I feel they are becoming a thing of art, which i love and can truly feel with my soul!<br /><br />In other news, check out my new apron:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/lucidrose/5362612480/" title="New apron by lucidRose, on Flickr"><img alt="New apron" height="500" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5166/5362612480_5720a44770.jpg" width="395" /></a><br />My dear friend Dr.Bob kindly sewed it up for me. It was made from a vintage dress i found at the goodwill bins awhile ago. Strangely enough this is my first apron. Wearing an apron while painting was something i hadn't considered doing until recently when i realized that everything i owed has some amount of paint on it which was making it very hard to dress for work. I knew i wouldn't actually use apron unless it would be interesting enough for me to want to wear it. I think this apron is the one! I have it hung right before my painting table so that i have to walk by it to get to my easel. lets see if i can manage to remember to wear it!<br /><br />So thats all the "newness" i have for you this Monday morning.<br /><br />However, today is Marten Luther King Jr day. On the way to work I was listening to the DemocracyNow broadcast( listen to it <a href="http://www.democracynow.org/2011/1/17/special_dr_martin_luther_king_jr"><strong>here</strong></a> ) in which they were doing a special focusing on his anti war, anti violence and anti profiteering stance. Many of his words which he spoke about Vietnam are still extremely relevant to today's world affairs. I especially enjoyed a quote he recited during his "Beyond Vietnam" speech:<br /><br /><br />"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable." -JFK<br /><br />Peace n Love,<br />-Chelsea Rose
