I used to love the early morning sitting on top of the boat in the middle of nowhere . . . Peaceful gentle rocking with the sunrise. Bliss.

But when I've left off suddenly to do something (against my will ;-) then it really looks un-finished to me. Probably only because I know the circumstances.<br />I hope I get back "into" it again once I have some free time.

I can often hear his voice when I draw (he's still alive :-)) and It's rare that I'm satisfied with a drawing . . but I suppose that's not a bad thing . . Then again . . . ?<br />I don't know.
