Happily it worked, and despite the fact that her tree was later targeted by vandals (not official loggers) and seriously damaged by cutting, I read while researching that the tree was stabilised and seems to be doing okay today, whew! Thanks again for the comment, Lisa :-)Patiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762943370256912680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2609222692340777108.post-72108802534602695192012-05-03T08:06:03.695-07:002012-05-03T08:06:03.695-07:00Denthe, thank you so much -- quite a compliment co...Denthe, thank you so much -- quite a compliment coming from an artist such as yourself, the master of lovely expressions...!

As an artist, I've come to the realisation over time that I really need to find personal motivation somewhere in any thing I initiate, otherwise there is a high likelihood of my losing interest and not following through, heh (just what is that anyway? ;-)). As much as I adore butterflies and all their ilk, somehow just painting a literal insect I knew wasn't going to cut it for me, so I"m glad I was able to come up with this angle ;-). In any case, thanks so much, Rose -- it's lovely to meet you!Patiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762943370256912680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2609222692340777108.post-28090455493519311872012-05-03T07:53:06.511-07:002012-05-03T07:53:06.511-07:00Wendy,thank you so much for commenting, and for fo...Wendy,thank you so much for commenting, and for following...!

I thought an ACEO as my 'first face' might go quickly and smoothly -- but nope! Found myself having to fussy-fuss-fuss with her expression a lot tonight to acheive that serene expression, lol. Oh well, I'm sure I'll catch my '29 Faces' stride soon enough here.
