Couldn't get a good crisp photo with my available lighting when I finished just now, but wanted to post it anyway...didn't want to wait.  Will try to take a better photo of it later this week.  

I'ts actually closer to being done than this photo...just rarely seem to take photos of work or post this time of year.  So lucky to be apart of a surprise gift, and so excited that I was asked to do it.  I'm working from a photo ....and just hope it's loved when it's finally finished.  Hope it meets expectations....commissions always make me so nervous....don't want to let anyone down and it's also exciting to know you are making something that has a potential loving home.  

Some of Shirley Heim Middle School's display at the Fine Arts Festival.  I am so proud of my students!
