surpassing the sounds of ordinary speech - Take 2

*sold*
I re-did the painting i posted a couple days ago, something just bothered me about it, and try as i might, i couldn't make it right. So i pasted the face of the sketch i did today and touched her up with colored pencils; I like this version much better.

wow, katie! your sketch and re-do are amazing. i need to try your 20 minute idea. and i often go back and redo my paintings. i'm in the process of doing that now!

this is great! The redo definitely works better with the overall mood of the piece.

I like this re-do a lot too.
Thanks for your comment on my blog.

I'm due in early February! I hope your daughter is feeling better now. I remember she wasn't doing well at all her 1st trimester. I had a great 1st tri, and my 2nd and 3rd have been not as good with physical pain. But I'm hanging in!

Hope you are doing well yourself. :)

Looks great! Neat trick with fixing the face. I love that spirit of trying whatever works, and collage definitely lends itself. This is beautiful, and the drawing the face comes from is beautiful too.
