Queenie Finds Her King...

There is a downside to being so busy preparing my Delicious Paint class

 while working away on paid illustration jobs like a mad woman

  don't get me wrong...it is all great fun actually... and they pay me to have this fun

  so life is pretty awesome sauce

  but there is a downside, as small as it may be

 and that is I haven't had time to sketch up my solar queen's new companion until now

 good old QE 2 has finally a man in her life... a king to her queen which seems appropriate

 and seeing her serenely waving away on the window sill

 while he is all hip shaking and microphone waving is quite the thing

The only thing that could make me happier is if he had a knee that shook

and had a motion activated voice that said thank you very much every time you walked past

that would be amazing right

but he is a welcome addition to our growing solar family

which also includes a solar santa, and the picorgi... remember him?

An added bonus is that it is a constant reminder to Sinus to go and get a haircut

you see he has this hair that grows like a forest on steroids

but weirdly there is a puff of hair at the front that always grows quicker than the rest

so out of nowhere you wake up one day and it is all foofy at the front

and until he gets to the barber Sinus is absent and Elvis takes his place

which of course leads to much hilarity every time it foofs 

because we get to do Elvis impressions whenever he enters the room

not to mention some off key singing 

and more thank you very much-ing than you can poke a microphone at

all of which he hates

so of course that only makes us love it that much more

which is starting to make me think that having our new solar toy around might be a negative

if Solar Elvis reminds Sinus to get more regular haircuts

then I don't get to do my fabulous impressions and singing

and I firmly believe that it is that sort of teasing that keeps a marriage strong

nothing says I love you like a good Elvis impression

bloody QE2 had better appreciate the sacrifices I am making

happy painting all...xx
