I was able to have some time last week to finally complete the commission of Muffy's portrait. Getting my boss's artwork ready for the big show it August took most of my time and desire to even work on art projects.
The happy news is that I was very happy with the finished painting. I was so glad that the cat's fur didn't look too "stiff". Also, my client was so happy she gave me a tip and sent me a thank you note. I am looking forward doing something else challenging of my own. Perhaps finishing a portrait that I started two years ago...painting people terrifies me, so I should try it, right?

CONGRATS!!! on the half marathon!! I'm so proud of you - I totally knew you could do it :)
I was just catching up on your last few posts...as the undisputed queen of 'women who think they can do more than they actually can',I'll tell you to relax and take a deep breath. I know it seems like I get a lot of stuff done - but it isn't a fraction of the stuff that I think I should. The best I've come up with is to not beat yourself up over it. The house is rarely as clean as I'd like and projects take longer than I think they should - it's frustrating. I've started telling myself each day that "I am not superhuman - yet". If I feel like I've done the best I can for that day, then the day was a raging success.
The remarkable answer :)
