After working on the Lexington and Melissa picture, a thought hit me. I have so much art I have done but never moved them forward to the finished stage. It was a little bit out of doubt that I never thought of finishing something, not too sure of myself that what I finish would be viewed by anyone outside of the small circle of folks how have followed my art. Sometimes it is hard to keep a mindset that I am only doing my art for myself, a vow I made to myself awhile back. I figured going through all that old art, it would be best to finish them, put them to bed before working on new ideas. Maybe a recent picture done by another artist on one subject I thought I would have a chance to work on may have drove me to finish my old art, I don't really know because I have tried so hard to avoid competition, heh, what is the use of playing a game you know you can't win at.

I might work on new art, a few ideas I'm puttering about with, but for now it is the old art. Perhaps it is a sign that by working with the old stuff, I might finally break that barrier that held me back for so long. All I can say that anyone who is watching my work, bear with me, or if you feel the quality of my work has degraded that much, unwatch me, please! I is never my intentions to dissapoint and I would feel devastated if more accomplished artists don't get the views they should have by someone watching my work, better them than me. Oh well, time to crack the whip and get down to it. I also might take up needle punch again, after all, I can only get better.
