One More Edit On The Written Part Of My Project

YAY!  

I'm not going to do the edit until next week so I'll have a few days to let it all settle and give myself a little space from it.  

Meanwhile ... I get to go back to the artwork with a clear conscience!  

This whole project has been fun and I'm already looking forward to using everything I've learned on the NEXT one!

Nerve-wracking, I Tell You! Nerve-wracking! Fear Of Success ...

Never seriously drew people before in my life. 

Never. 

Ever. 

Now I'm doing the sketches for the project I'm working on, using the faces of my FAMILY for heaven's sake, and it's driving me crazy! 

I can kind of cope with the whole concept up to a point, and then I freak out. 

The weird thing is that they're beginning to actually look like the models; that scares me some. 

See, if I couldn't get ANY of them right I could just say oh well what the hell I guess I really CAN'T do this - and call it quits. 

The one I'm working on right now is Sass again - different pose, different medium - and I had to stop for a while because she's coming along just FINE! 

I know. 

That sounds bass-ackwards. 

Even so, that's the way it is. 

Fear of success is debilitating.

PRAY FOR PEACE

What with one thing and another, my prayer is that this day will pass in peace and that calm dignity will prevail. 

God bless us every one. 

Please PLEASE guide our leaders, whether they want You to or not, in the choices that must be made. 

Please God, can we not have just ONE day of peace? 

I am but one tiny molecule in the body of the world, but please hear this prayer and fill the spirits of ALL with peace, just for this one day.
