today i went outside on the front porch with the camera...
took a few pictures and decided to give myself a 30 minute challenge.
ya see, when working on the heart from yesterday i kept going back in and working more into it... which, i'm glad i did because i love the way it ended up. but it got me thinking about how many endless hours i could put into one piece if i let myself.
sometimes {not always} we need to put our foot down,
give ourselves a stopping point,
give ourselves a stopping point,
appreciate that what's there is beautifully imperfect
and move on.
it's a good exercise anyway :)
so, today my thirty minute challenge was to paint this photo...
a pretty good challenge if i do say so myself... lots going on!
{my kids love to put rocks on the railing :)}
i mapped it out and then started the timer...
this is what was left at 35.7 minutes :)
i could have kept going for another 30 minutes, but would have most definitely overworked the background... which is the part i ended up loving the most!
so please just try and ignore the elephant, i mean rock, in the foreground.
thanks for checking in today!!
