This is almost done. I'm going to do a little bit of airbrushing and also add a couple little stars in there. It's a different sort of gift for my young niece. I thought at first, I will make her a painting. But what I have decided to do, is to make the painting itself a contingent gift. If I sell it before September, I will split the proceeds with her. If I don't, she'll get the original. Normally, I wouldn't worry myself with trying to sell something meant as a gift, but this kid is more interested in money than art. She likes art, but it doesn't speak the way money does. Preteens!
I meant to split my time up yesterday between projects, but I ended up working on the one all day. Today, I don't think I'll have time to do much work. I made a dinner date with a client to help him curate his walls with art he already has collected. He has only one arm, which poses challenges to putting nails in the wall if one does not own a nail gun. Not to mention threading the work of some of the art he's collected. Not from me. I'm a good artist. I almost always remember to make sure it's ready to hang before it leaves my home.
