Wow, what a mess! But I just applied #kromacrackle, so who knows what it will look like after it dries? It’s all a big mess of uncertainty. Welcome to the world of improvisation. 🙂 #workinprogress #wip #originalart #abstract #cracklepaste #mixedmedia #livingacreativelife

I’m all tingly with that “what would happen if..?” feeling! About to try something weird, so had to snap a progress pic first, before I change this canvas dramatically! #originalart #workinprogress #wip #creativesandbox #cs101

It left me speechless.
