Where Did the Nice Weather Go?!

Hello. Well, it seems that the beautiful weather we were having has disappeared and winter is back. It is cold outside today but I won't complain about that (as I sit in my warm house in front of the computer) since it is bright and beautiful and sunny. It always lifts the spirits. The funny part is that the kids bundled up more today then they did all winter when it was actually colder out. Amazing how quickly perspectives change!

I started working on a new canvas for one of the walls in my house (not sure where it will go since I think it is too big for the wall it was intended for). Unfortunately, I started it about a month ago and the progress is slow going. I am at the stage where I freeze up because I am afraid that the next stroke of paint will be the one that ruins the art.

Here is what I have so far...


I am going to get up the nerve to finish this. Hopefully it will get done this week. I am going to have to make the time to do it and then just be brave. I will post more pictures as I work on it (hopefully I will remember to take them).

Here's to being brave!

I can't wait to see how this turns out! Your colors are amazing and the subtle shading in the background is fabulous.

I totally get how you feel paralyzed because you don't want to mess it up. I *just* finished a piece that I put off for about a month because I was so nervous about messing it up! What I did was I hung it on the wall and looked at it daily. I finally decided what it needed and was able to finish it.

Best of luck!
