I'm so glad you mentioned it is difficult for you to not want to add details and that you are working on trying not to be detailed. You are such a talented woman that I admire, so hearing you say that helps me not to be so hard on myself in the area of detail. Thank you! <br /><br />ENJOY those grandchildren!!<br /><br />♥Lee AnnLeeAnn@Encouragement Is Contagioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11115472068334541489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5039030048391705293.post-40888409522462465322012-02-02T20:15:05.709-05:002012-02-02T20:15:05.709-05:00this is the italy i always see in my dreams......g...this is the italy i always see in my dreams......gorgeous!! i could move there tomorrow! have fun in greenville! xoxlori vliegenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11938424189889768402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5039030048391705293.post-15965045470518041042012-02-02T18:04:06.977-05:002012-02-02T18:04:06.977-05:00Absolutely stunning!

I do not have that expectation in other peoples work so why can't I "get it"?......I do like realism and some of my favourite wild life artists capture wildlife like a photo and I admire that skill, its breathtaking.........so naturally if I compare myself to that I will never be happy............like you I wish I could simplify and be happy<br />JaniceJanice Kay Schaubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01218296462551967972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5039030048391705293.post-74328495942721629092012-02-02T08:58:27.877-05:002012-02-02T08:58:27.877-05:00On my bucket list too.
