Five Degrees to Hades

"The Summer Girls" - 8 x 10" colored pencil on paper.
Copyright 2007 Maggie Stiefvater.
done for the Wicked Lovely art contest.

The Five Degrees of Hot according to Me:

1. No Sweating. Need water but not sweet tea. T-shirt and jeans.

2. No Sweating. Need sweet tea but not ice cream. T-shirt and jeans.

3. Mild Sweating, not Yet Gross. Need ice cream but not iceberg. T-shirt and shorts.

4. Gross Sweating. Need iceberg. Tank top and shorts.

5. No Sweating. Sitting inside air conditioned house eating cookie dough waiting for the weather to break.

Guess which stage I'm at now?

I think there is definately humidity in Hades too Maggie. It acts like a slime covering your skin so it cant "breath" and it feels like your choking on water when you actually breath. I've been painting indoors a lot this summer, Congrats on your publishing!!
