my hair is black and it's so cool!!!

"Soft black"

Every time I dye my hair dark I don't feel any different, likely because I was a Jewish baby with a head of black curls.

I was also quite an accomplished painter as a child. The above painting is acrylic on canvas and pretty large scale, a few feet in each direction. I haven't painted much since then.

Hopefully I can use the black hair to harness a bit of that today, cause I'm straight painting all day, no pencils allowed.
