Totally in love!

I know we artists have a tendency to forever criticize our own work, but not with this one. I cannot believe this came out of my paintbrush!
I'm so in love with this painting that I keep staring at it!
I'm not sure if it's done yet, but it's definitely done enough to let it sit for a bit to see if it needs anything else.
The background is beautifully textured plaster of paris and I think I want that to be a little more visible. But I'm not sure yet.
Protected (in progress)
12 x 24 inch acrylic painting on canvas
I may just leave it as is.

Tomorrow Daniel gets back from his trip out to California where he attended a conference and visited with his sister. It's been very quiet around here and I cannot wait to have him back! We'll get to spend a few days together and then I'm off to Germany. It's a busy summer...

Wishing you a beautiful Thursday! I hope all is well with all of you!!
