It has been a long time since my last post....who am I kidding,  I had given up.  I am not a writer and it makes me very uncomfortable to sit at a computer and write what is on my mind.  But it was always nagging at me...I could not push it completely out of my head.  I should be writing posts, even just to practice something I obviously have difficulties with.  So today I finally sat down with the determination to stay in my chair, not make excuses and work on this until it is finished.
So here it goes, work in progress shots of a portrait that I have just finished and sent off.

                       This is after 6 hours of work

                                                     This is after 12 hours of work.

                                                     This is after 23 hours of work

This after 35 hours of work!!!  


Phew!!!  I guess that wasn't so difficult after all.  Then again, I did not say too much either.  Maybe next time.
