Nailing It
I can't remember the last time I felt like yelling "YEah!!!" and punching my fist up in the air like people do after scoring the winning goal. It's been a long time, but I feel like that tonight. I NAILED my painting for my first exhibition. Four weeks of fruitless attempts followed by 13 hours of work in the last two days before the deadline, and I NAILED it. I don't know why I ever try to do things before they are due. I always wind up creating stress when I could just leave it till two days before, and NAIL it.
Anyway, I can't show you yet, because it hasn't had it's debut, but I will let you know that i liked it enough to splurge and buy a 2,500 yen frame for it (of course It is a dark brown frame with generic off-white mat so it can be used with any painting in the future).
I went to bed at 4:30 the past two nights, so I'm going to bed early tonight. Later...
