before & after: new art

The other day Eden told Graham to put his head in her lap so she could draw his face ...

and here is the after ...

This was the view from the couch tonight which I love ...

I actually think it would look better with all four frames, two up and two down, but you just can't rush fine art. We'll just have to wait for inspiration to strike again.
