I want to try one-color or two-color painting. For example burnt umber + yellow, as a way to practice color values.

Snails are lovely. When "I was kid" I lived next to the beach. We would collect snails and boil them in an old rusty tin can. We used the wire we got from burned tires to pick them out. It is funny that we survived. 
funny story. I work in IT for a complex that cares for people with mental and physical disabilities. We have about 100 residents.Have a whale of a good day!
Yesterday, one of the residents, an older man. Said he noticed we had ID badges. The badges control door access.
So took his picture and made him a badge, put his job title as my assistant. It does not open doors. He giggled the whole time I was making it.
That made my week.
I still have a fondness for escargot in garlic butter. When I was a kid we would hunt for snails on the island of Crete where my mother was from.
Some of my most cherish memories are of eating them with my distant cousins, along with greens we picked in the mountains.
After our meal we would climb up to a deep well for a cold drink. It was hot enough to melt rubber shoe soles mid-day in the sunshine on the beach.
We would all nap on the cold marble floors in the main house with full bellies. Love me some escargot...

A gang of the snails are angry with this and are coming over to your place to give you a piece of their minds.
They will be there sometime in 2028.
Getting firewood and an old rusty soup can. I have the wire from a burned tire all ready.
Sorry, old habits are hard to stop.
