My boys are always asking me to paint something for their room and it was this quote that finally inspired me:"You can't steal second if your foot is still on first base." ~Author Unknown
Taking that first step away from a place that feels safe and risking failure applies in a lot more places than just the ball field!
This was a different painting for me, not only in subject matter, but also because I really tried hard to stick with a looser style. I did this by forcing myself to use large brushes and not obsessing over detail like I usually do. What a blast I had doing it.
