I had a good bit of paint left over after finishing my art class homework.

I was going to leave it as simple squares, but there is a part of me that can never leave well enough alone, so it got extra stripes.

Getting the colors to show up properly was a challenge considering the lighting situation in my house, but even though they are not exactly the same as the original, I think they are nice anyway. The topmost image is most like the original. The yellow squares are much greener, and the blue squares are more violet.

I don’t know the story behind this dance, why it’s called Mexican Breakfast, or if this is even the original song (doubtful).

I first saw this video in an art class discussion today.

(Mom, congratulations, this is the college education we’re paying for.)

Anyway, the music is my favorite part; I played it several times in a row while doing homework this evening. But the text is pretty funny too.
