Keep on Creating!
Wow, very nice piece!
As an artist myself I can certainly tell you this,
the experience you have had in working on this one is in no way lost...
and you will see just how much this one is truly worth,
when you work on the next one and see how much you have improved!
Art shows us where we have been,
for to an artist the real "art" is a process,
not a thing!
Indeed this one looked great,
but you CAN do better!
and you will see that in your next attempt!
Great job!
Sorry about the accident with it,
Take some tie to recover, rest a bit, renew your energy, and
I look forward to seeing your next one!
