hi all...
luvd reading all ur comments & replies...
while i'm an avid observer of art, my personal artform is interior design & fashion...
it's strictly on a personal basis but it does help me to 'get over myself' or distract me from head miles when i open a book or google a website...
as has been said, art comes in many forms, thnx for allowing me to share mine... 
Hi all,
Sorry I have been quiet for so long - working hard the last few weeks getting myself down from a manic phase, and without a crash. What a relief! Self-medicated with lots of quiet time, minimal busyness.
I have been working on this (life-sized) painting for about a year. It's called Outpouring of Grace - a wish and a blessing for you all.
Kind regards,
Kristin
Thanks Che 
,
Only time I've had the same vision twice, and it actually turned out looking quite like what I saw. I've tried reproducing a few but they usually look nothing like what I saw, even if they work from a perspective of giving the idea of it. So I am pretty chuffed! I am hoping to enter it into Lilydale Art Show if I can get it framed in time (old rather beaten up 2nd hand op shop frame with holes in it and a nail sticking out one end - perfect!, and painted black).
Hopefully all ready in time.
Kind regards,
Kristin
