A Thousand Lives

This painting has lived a thousand lives.

Made with tons of love for some dear friends, I couldn't be happier with the final result!

Although a thousand lives may be a bit of an exaggeration, which I specialize in ;), it is true that most of my paintings have many layers. Some paintings just happen to have much bigger transformations than others. The photos below may look like four completely different paintings, but they're actually all the same one! These are the layers from the midway through the painting, to completion. There were even more layers underneath that first photo, and along the way too, just not captured.

 And, because it's fun to watch things as a slideshow, thought I'd share that too!

Thanks for being here!
