Metamorphosis ~ This little 6x6 inch stretched canvas has gone though so many changes, I now have the perfect title for it. I gessoed over one I didn't like, painted another, and then painted another over that one...then changed it yet again! Well this is the final version and there's about 3 paintings underneath this one. :p
Which reminds me, one of my all-time favorite short stories is 'The Metamorphosis' by author Franz Kafka. Very eerie and a great read!

Lovely painting ~ 'hanging moon' :)
(grinning) WHATEVER all it took,,it was well worth the effort(s)!
A slam dunk winner Lynnie,,,I adore it!
And those gorgeous shadows in the tree painting,,you really have this style 'down'!
Love them both!
Lynnette - I'm such a fan of your abstracts! Icy Spirit seems like the perfect prelude to winter...
Metamorphosis by Kafka is one of my favorites too. I should pull it out this winter break.
These are great, Lynette! Wow...you know how I love the tree paintings!
There is an award for you at my blog!
Love your moons, Lynette!
These are both great, and I like the idea of some art historian -- 200 years from now -- x-raying your little painting and seeing all the other images beneath.
Oh, and as for Kafka -- I like my men with a pinch of insanity mixed in, but I hate when they turn into cockroaches!
Thank you fenny, yep it could be a funny hanging moon! :)
Heeyy Babs, ha, there is about 3 or 4 paintings underneath that one and I finally had to call it finished! Thanks for the nice words!

Hey JB, thank you too and LOL I was about ready to give up on that painting. I hope you and yours had a lovely TG Day too! We got so stuffed that day and now it's time to go on a diet LOL.
Your Icy Spirit Awakens reminds me of the winter sky last night--the moon accompanied by Venus and Jupiter.
And your other painting morphed beautifully. Great circling energy.
Glad its not only me that refines paintings over and over! Love the end result!
