not quite completed but close
part of this weekend was spent weeding through my studio, working on completing all the paintings that are half done.
the bummer is, starting again after not touching them for SO long- i end up essentially repainting the whole thing over again.
perhaps i will grow out of this rotten habit someday!?!?!?!?
PLEASE say you have experience with this and you've conquered it.
give me hope that the whispered words to myself of "never again" are not lost in the wind.
i also managed an 11 mile run on Saturday!
my longest run in over a year.
it feels good to be active again.
and my body seems to be holding up. yay!

Oh, lovin this kitty! His eyes remind me of Sylvester Stallone (in a good way).
Holy cow, an 11 mile run! I had a knee replacement a few years ago and running isn't something that I could do (if I wanted to ;-)
Hugs,
Kay

Love the kitty... and his companion birdy! Excited to see the finished masterpiece!
Oh yes.. and about the not finishing thing... I don't know any artist who has completely conquered it... I think it's just part and parcel of being creative and easily bored! Some you finish... and some you don't... and some you repaint and love 'em when they're finally done!

I have the same issue with my paintings. I don't touch them in forever and then end up repainting them. Trying to break that habit. :)
Congrats on the run! That's awesome!

And I really LIKE this one! I miss painting while we travel and hope I'm sucking up lots of imagery.
