Layers
I am layer upon layer upon layer of flesh and emotion. My true inner self remains buried deep within the mix of thick and thin, transparent and opaque, soft and tough layers, slightly disconnected and concealed. Some days I want nothing more than to peel away the layers and feel unabandoned and free. Other days, like today, I am content to be small and cautious and guarded.

So beautiful!
Just wanted to pop in and say hi. I have been off line for such a long time, but finally back in Blog Land again.
It is such a shame we never got to do an art trade back when. You do lovely work!

Gorgeous texture and colors. I love the stance in the picture and the washout look of everything but the bird.
