Owies and news

This past week  I hurt  my right thumb when trying to smash a spider between a book and the ceiling. °u° Stoopid, I know. Then my left index nail was bent backwards when I was scratching something sticky. Ouch.

So far I was able to type a few words in twitter or FB. But I'm better now

On to the news! It's easier to swing a paint brush than typing so I've been painting. I am very close to finish this piece and I better hurry, because this painting is going to the "Trees for life" exhibition in Scotland! yaay! I am donating this 6x9 (16 x 23 cm), plus 3 smaller ones for a fundraising where 100% of the sales go to the award winning Scottish charity Trees for Life. If you want more info click HERE


 





I painted many layers in the background until I finally liked it. I thought it was too busy and you could not see the girl! :o)
