I also didn't know before seeing this, but I'm guessing you must be Mormon (so am I! :o)) and I love love love the one of the Temple, as well as the one right below it. Just beautiful!<br /><br />I know exactly what you mean about finishing something and feeling satisfied. It's so hard, especially with my writing and music to feel like "I'm done". I always manage to find something to nit pick every little thing. Oh, the life of a perfectionist! :o)The1stdaughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03701783270303914306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-5554804621153631052010-09-13T08:22:37.270-07:002010-09-13T08:22:37.270-07:00Thank you all for your kind comments!
samantha,...Thank you all for your kind comments! <br /><br />samantha, I very rarely get a chance to paint. Or write. But, I still listed them as hobbies, so I'm sure your cross-stitching and scrapbooking count!<br /><br />Laurel-Rain, I'm not sure I have enough ability to maintain my two blogs (one personal, which I update about once a month...)! <br /><br />Suey, I'm with you on the faith in myself. I haven't sat and written something non-bloggish in a long time. I hope you decide to come back to it sometime!<br /><br />Jessi, thank you! It's only my family that likes to display it, so I don't know how universal that appeal is...<br /><br />Gwen, really that's the only medium that I can get things to turn out ok. I used to love pencil, because you could do much more detail, but never ever oil or other kinds of paint.melissa @ 1lbrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292714636311546457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-69996083877154311302010-09-12T13:48:31.887-07:002010-09-12T13:48:31.887-07:00I love your paintings and am so jealous that you c...I love your paintings and am so jealous that you can work with watercolors!

But I decided to totally give up that idea awhile back. I don't have near enough courage or faith in myself, or something. I hope you do keep taking the baby steps!
