Carolyn, no need for even a hint of jealousy. I have said before and will repeat: Speed doesn't mean quality. It simply shows impatience. I promise your 20 plus hours will be well spent and you will have a beautiful piece. Honestly, when I paint or do pastels I sit down and it turns into a freak show. I don't stop even for the potty. I work until I can't anymore and that is usually around 5 AM. I don't even step back like most people do to look over what I am doing. My husband says I am driven. I will let him think that but it's just plain old lack of constant discipline or desperation for cash (after all, one must eat).
Jenni, thank you! I'm glad you liked the skin tones since I have really been struggling to make them better. The jacket itself went on and on and on. I will stick with solids for the next few. I've had my fill of patterns for the month. No wonder I tell clients to put their children in something simple. If I had to do patterns like this all the time I would be crazy----er.
You are both really supportive. Thanks!
