I could not be any more thrilled to get to send Opal to her new home next week - she gets to be a Southern Belle! Thank you and congratulations to my returning collector for literally purchasing her dripping wet off my easel. Which bears reminding - if you ever fall absolutely in love with something in process, please let me know and we can work out first rights.
My collector also inadvertently titled Opal when mentioning that she particularly loved that the painting's colorway was the same as her birthstone. Which then informed a number of the decisions I made as I finished the piece. And, yes, if you follow me on social media, this is the one I took a sander to out of frustration and disgust at myself last week. Perseverance, refocusing, and swallowing my ego all helped resolve her.
Thanks for following along on my painting journey,
Be well,
Fondly, Kim |
