Nail-Biter

Yup, it's a pelican. And a white pelican at that. Like me, it is happy in both the ocean and the mountains. 

I hate this stage in a painting. I can see the potential in the piece; I like where the painting is going, it looks fresh and not over-worked, but my very next brush-stroke could go either way. It's a real nail-biter.

nice angle- i like it! can't wait to see where it goes. i always have a "what did i do, this is awful!" stage, but it usually gets better :)

Thanks Marianne! It's always reassuring to know that other artists have that stage, too.
