Hope is the thing with Feathers...



This is a mini canvas, 6"x 3". I have been working on it all summer, veeeeerrrrryyyyy sloooooowly...I didn't want to ruin it so I was extra cautious, only adding a layer when I was completely sure that it would be the perfect next element. In the end she is a cutie...I am going to leave her with a friend here in Paris who I think she belongs with, just another really strong feeling...

She is Fearfully and Wonderfully Made


As I continue to create these girls, I am evolving a lot. The first one I made a lot of mistakes on, she was kinda my "ugly" practice girl. And there were things I didn't like about the 2nd and 3rd girls too...on this one I really tried to listen to my voice and I am very pleased with the result. The Bible verses that I use always occur to me very strongly, so perhaps they are being provided by the Holy Spirit! I still have 3 more girls to go in this series, but I might have to put off finishing them until after we move back to the USA, in 2 weeks!
