Bowl-Egged

I think you have to be from Texas or at least the south to read the title for this one right. I tried to think of a way to type a kind of pronunciation but couldn't quite make it. I hope it's clear enough.

  2. LOL!!! I am from the South and the title SPOKE to me immediately. Superb painting as usual, and those dreamy blue-grays really let the orange areas sing. I hope your Mom is happy with the eggs! Those luscious broken brush strokes give your scene a nice, airy feeling. Beautiful!

  4. Them eggs walk funny. Maybe it's cause they're bowl egged and not rah or frah'd.

  6. It's clear! A hyphen before the "ed" might do help. Maybe it was all those years I spent in west Texas. Great form, you make it look easy. and it's decidedly not.

  7. I grew up in Calgary, Alberta, home of the Calgary Stampede. We too know how to say bowl legged. Your play on words is egg-cellent.

    (sorry, I couldn't resist)
