Works in Progress...Or Not

Here are a few items that I've been working on and now that I've asked for less hours at work for my birthday, maybe I'll actually get some more work done.  I think she is done but I will stare at her a while longer until I am sure.

This one has been around for a while and has gone through many incarnations driving me crazy. Now I like the colors but the blue flower has gotten too big. Oh well another layer of paint will cover it up.
I don't know where the heck she came from but she came out one day...
And this is just the base painting of something I've been playing with and a piece of metal from the road. We'll see what happens to her.

A Walk In The Woods

 On our way we met the Husband who was constructing a replacement arch for the garden. I asked if he was expecting any giants to visit. He mentioned his brother whom he referred to as "Ginormo Boy" would appreciate it. Onward we went to the woods to take some reference shots for future paintings.
 Daughter #3 I convinced to dress as a sword maiden.  Luckily Daughter #4 left a portion of her wardrobe.
 Unfortunately #3 was sadly lacking in killer instinct with the sword. Here I am trying to show her how to be angry enough to cut someones head off.  Not hard for me to channel-I just think of work...
On our way back, we stopped and visited the girls who were eager to talk to us.  No eggs yet and excuse the foul/fowl language.
