Happy accidents


You know when you are working on something, and you go through these stages of the work while you are working on it, and you come to a point where think you just made a BIG mistake, a HUGE mistake, a mistake you can't take back? ...But then, after awhile - and sometimes it happens after just coming back to it the next day - it turns out that the mistake was really just another stage of the work? In the two pieces I have completed since finishing the big project last week, I've had that experience. This one, which I just completed tonight, made a complete 180 turnaround after that phase. I am really happy with the way that it turned out. :) Hope you enjoy.

Kathy, I love that piece. I'd love to see it up close. So dreamy looking, which is good since the little girl is in bed.Is it part of a book?

Thanks B!!

Nope, it's not part of a book. I started it as a 'portfolio piece' (for lack of a better word), and if it turned out well, I planned to use it in my portfolio.

Thanks for the note and encouragement!
