This is the end

I have finally finished it. I have been working since April on this thing, monk style. Like... Shaolin monk style. On the floor, hunched over in a manner that is probably the worst thing to do to your back besides breakdancing. The studio has been awash in paisley psych and Persian music while I've been crawling around on the floor with my paintbrushes.
It's been a journey with this one. We're nearing the end of June and it's finally done and the best part is this one gave birth to the ideas for the next one...which means this has been not only a labor of love but a fruitful labor. Indeed.
When I get details on when it will hang at the Dallas Museum of Art I'll post. For now I'm basking in the glow of being a new proud mama (and basking in a comfy chair after I post this!).
