Your description of the standing-around-awkwardness-mixed-with-terror had me cackling and nodding my head “Yes, yes, yes, that is exactly how it feels.”

But – every time I have seen photos of your work in progress, my reaction is always “So that is how she is doing it, cool!” Its enlightening and makes me appreciate the work even more when I learn about your process. Unfinished, they blow us away. So glad you aren’t being impressed by what Mike has to say about this.

And those of us who aren’t artists or aren’t artists yet don’t think that we can create, because we don’t create LIKE THAT. We don’t create with ease all of the time.

So, thank you very much for showing that sometimes the artistic process has moments of vulnerability, that it has iterations of “not quite right”, that it has moments where an artist isn’t in love with what she’s creating and that she goes on until the work accurately reflects what she’d like to express.

That being said, I think your work in progress is beautiful. It’s amazing. I wouldn’t know it was a work in progress unless you described it as such.

Thank you for sharing all of this!

The work is coming along *beautifully*!!
