It’s a rainy day in the lowcountry, so I wanted to share this colorful piece. I have grappled with it for a while, and finally propped it up where its home will be in an attempt to decide what else it needs. I was telling a dear friend this weekend that I was unhappy with it - it’s different than most of my pieces - messy, colorful, and to me, looks unfinished. She looked at me and said - “it’s life. It’s a journey. It’s messy. It’s colorful. It’s unfinished. But when you step back and take it all in, it’s beautiful.” She said, “don’t do one more thing to this piece. Sign your name and enjoy it.” And because of who she is, I listened to her, and it’s now my favorite piece I’ve ever done.
