Wipe Out!

Literally. Wiped out. All wiped out.

I painted in second figure completely. I sensed as I was painting that she was too big. But I had sketched her in and the sketch looked good, so I kept plugging along. Then, alas, I stood back and Really looked. While she measured correctly, I had somehow lifted her as I painted so that her feet were level with Jessica's. It made her appear like a giant. The proportions were just all wrong.

I wish I had photographed her before I took the mineral spirits to her. But... once I decided she had to go, I just went for.

I had to kill her, but she will be resurrected. Stay tuned to meet Rachel.

PS - If you look close you can see the ghost of her legs!
