One morning, I woke up with an insane urge to paint my legs. I was on the phone with Michelle, and I told her about my urge and she suggested rolling around on a “Mary Sized” piece of paper. I didn’t have any paper that big, but I did have a bunch of white card stock.
I went outside, and used some of the remaining paint from the Paint A Person event to cover my legs.
And then I rolled around on top of the paper.
I got some really cool results, and you should probably keep an eye out in your mailbox. You might just get a postcard that I painted (without my hands) sent to you! If I cut into fours, I can easily get 40 postcards out of this project. And we all know how badly you want to own something my butt has been on.
The first ten people to comment on this post will get a postcard for sure, though. If you don’t think I have your address, make sure your e-mail is filled out in the comment form and I’ll message you to get it.
[edit] We’re over 10 comments now, but keep going because I love you guys.
I had paint on my legs for a couple days afterward. It was way harder to get off than the paint from the paint fight, which I think is because I was rubbing it into my skin instead of getting it splattered on me from a distance.
