Creative Tuesday: This is another one from the archives - summer of 09, the day after a truly remarkable celebratory event I was subject to very frequently when i lived in Atlanta - the monthly Backgammon tournament. This particular one was at our good friend Larry's house - the man with the pool, neverending bottle of wine, & cigars. And, of course, sparkling, scintillating conversation. Quite the scene....
The brown seen in the background is actually from the inside casing of a cigar enclosure - pure tobacco - decoupaged to cover the wooden cabinet. I think we also came back from that celebration with a couple bottle of wines, 2 of which are serving as models in this instance.
Not sure what all the text is about - think I was contemplating paying off some credit card or other LOL! Which I actually did, 6 months later (THAT one anyhow.......)
As for the backgammon, it's a fun thing. Miss it DEARLY - not just the game, but the old friends. Trying to hustle up a good game in WNC but massively failing........... and as an aside, I actually won in a novice tournament in 2010 :D $210. Not bad for a hobby... very celebratory in any event
Now that i think about it.... I have sketchbooks & sketchbooks of Backgammon in action - I would play, & lose, & spend the rest of my time drawing everyone in all sorts of poses. I could upload them one at a time, if the theme is congruent as here, never seen before anywhere, a Creative Tuesday exclusive... whaddaya say, Mr T?
