Busy!

Wow, busy two days. I got some more pendants just about done, just need to varnish the back. I'm working on a small silk piece, playing with an idea, trying to work something out. My carpenter still hasn't shown up to make me some more frames for the silks so I'm going to try something different. I like them mounted in the open frame but I can't wait on my him forever. I'll try mounting this on on a canvas and see if I like it that way.

I also got to paint! Yeah! Larry's on the fabric, painted and the borders on. I'm not sure if I'll start on him tomorrow or paint the silk? Either way should be a good day. He's looking pretty good even in the "ugly" stage. I think he'll turn out really well. And to top it all off I got my taxes done and two thirds of the dining room carpet shampooed.  
It's amazing what can happen with a little encouragement, when someone tells you they believe in you and your talent. I'm going to try to hold on to that feeling as long as possible. Who knows when it will happen again.
