This piece has had multiple lives. I was fairly happy with the first day's work, but felt I was supposed to do more. That led to a much disliked stage. My 8 yr old granddaughter called while I was trying to make sense of things. She asked what I was doing. I described my trouble and she asked "You mean it's like a disaster?" Yes! That was it exactly! A few days later I just took my spatchers to it and now I'm happy again. Now I feel like I'm lying on the ground looking up through the leaves of the citrus trees we had when I was growing up in Florida! This piece has had multiple lives.
