    Chloe was not only a terrible painter, she was also a terrible musician; so the family stuck her in that terrible corner with that terrible dress.

    No wonder she’s confused. Some people call her Michelle, some call her Brigitte, and now somebody else is calling her Chloe.

    Chloe’s dad, the Colourblind Painter, kept asking her, "What is this “blue” you speak of? I paint what I see!"

    In reviewing her work, Michelle realized that she had to find the rest of her paint set.

    She didn’t notice that her laptop was still open on the floor and was waiting for windows to boot up.

    There’s only one thing worse than staring at a blank canvas, – That’s having a blank mind, as well !

    When you magnify the picture in the picture, you see that it is a nice, calm treed scene. She is just trying to calm her nerves to get ready to annoy the neighbors with her playing.

    Yes dear that dress does make your butt look big. You also appear to have an amazing wingspan.

    Although Michele agreed that an arts education was essential, she really hoped that lessons in trigonometry and physics were coming soon.

    “M-o-m! I’m trying to get inspired, but this idyllic picture isn’t doing it for me. Do you have something with a beefcake with rippling muscles I can stare at?”

    This is a very depressing painting: fat bottomed girl trying to decide if she wants to fail as an artists, or to fail as a musician.

    Having dispatched the painter with a swift blow to the head from her mandolin, she sat and gazed in wonder at her new treasure. “At last, my pretty,” she sighed. “At last you are mine, all mine.”
