I just finished this piece last night. One of the largest wood-burnings I have done since the bookshelf for the Chair Affair, it took many hours but I love the result! 

After spending a week working at a temp job I was feeling stuck, unengaged. Thoughts of art work swirl in my head, desire to create was there but wasn't coming through. I had been working on this a few hours here and there but it remained largely unfinished. Frustrated but having the option of doing housework or working on this, you see what I chose! It was a great sense of accomplishment and relief. I am now reinvigorated to move forward with new projects!
