That was my reaction to this very weird painting I did today. At first I really didn't like it, but it's kind of growing on me in ways that are teaching me more lessons in acceptance. I'm an idealist, a perfectionist, constantly setting the bar higher and higher for myself. No pain, no gain - right? After the sting passed, I started to appreciate the soft overall glow; the freedom of the dark strokes that define the wood floor, picture frames & chandelier; the awkward design made OK by the contemporary painting. It's beginning to sound like I'm justifying a mess - but what the heck? I feel better now. And seriously, I do like this piece!
