"Way Too Much!"

It's perfect example of not knowing when to stop.
So, I am exposing warts and all, as a public service.
Armed with an industrial supply of tissue & junk mail, I was off to work on a large 36x48" canvas.
It's kind of amazing that you can work away not

Isn't it a general problem - not only in art - not knowing when it's enough? If we knew when to stop we could avoid many problems. On the other hand, isn't it better to overwork than not to work at all? It never is easy, maybe experience helps.
Have a happy weekend, Jacki!
Thank you, Elenor! Yes, I agree with you n all points. Have a super weekend!
This is an example of Art Is in the eye of the beholder. I love the story ending that Connie took it home.
