Weeee! Etch A Sketching at museums is fun. I used to do it more around a decade ago and this NYC trip was the perfect opportunity to dip my toes back into it.

I would have loved to have etched The Starry Night but it was so consistently swarmed that I would have felt bad about camping out in front of it, even if I was only there for 11 minutes. I very intentionally stood a fair distance away from Gustav Klimt's Hope to allow others to pass in front of me, but everyone refused to eclipse my view which was so sweet (but I still felt bad lol).

Love that you used Dream Academy's version of "please, please, please let me get what i want" for the backtrack to this! Love me some Ferris Bueller references

You must be a genius in Etch a Sketch. Plus I loved your description of your time. Nice phrasing too.

I just realized the "thing" that was gnawing at me every time I see her content. I felt like I'd seen her before. Just 'something' was there and I couldn't see it until this moment. For some reason, Pee-Wees playhouse, its like she belongs there. So much COLOR and such an amazing attitude, she'd fit right in.

Suuuper fun fact: Pee-wee Herman once featured me on his blog! Truly one of my greatest accomplishments. You can read the article here: https://peewee.com/2016/05/24/check-amazing-art-princess-etch-sketch/

I got sick for a while! Totally put me out of commission for a couple weeks. Glad to be on the other side of it now!

Oh gosh! I am sorry to hear you were unwell; I hope you took some much needed time to rest and recover. Keep hydrated, and stay well. *hugs*

@op I HAVE to know. The music in the background was too quiet to be sure but did you overlay the instrumental "Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want" (The Smiths) famously known for the artistic montage in Ferris Bueller's Day Off!? v

Yes! I was humming it to myself the ENTIRE time I was etching at MoMA, so it felt like the right song to include for this video
