"God grant me the Serenity
To accept the things I cannot change
Courage to change the things I can
and the Wisdom to know the difference."
This prayer has gotten me through many tough moments in my life...to help me understand what I actually have "control" of, and what I do not....
This beautiful clock, I have been working on for over a month. I was on a mission to submit this Winter Fairy to Art Doll Quarterly for the June 15th deadline. This piece is the first piece that I have ever submitted..for various reasons. I was committed to do this for myself..June 13th I was suppose to ship Priority then decided I was whooped from graduation, hospital visits to dad, and it was Mom's birthday...so I will Express tomorrow.....My Dad died that night, and in my shocked, depressed stupor, I looked at this clock...my angel....my creation.....so ironically timed. What should I do? Send or keep? I thought of my Dad, and I know what he would tell me..."Honey, do your thing"....and so I did. Thank you Dad!

this is so very beautiful... i think i would want to hold onto this...
Christy, she is absolutely breathtaking! I personally would have a hard time letting her go...but then again I have a way of clinging onto all things
devine!...and that she is. :)
Awwww.......Making me blush!
Maybe your most beautiful piece yet, Christy. You captured the essence of this prayer and turned it into a breathtaking piece of art.
Christy, The time piece is a masterpiece. And I love how you spoke of your Dad. I would have liked to have known him. I know you make him proud.

I am so proud of you for sending this heavenly piece of art on it's way. They are so lucky to be able to have it grace the pages of their magazine....and your Dad is smiling because you did it!!
I adore your new Serenity Clock...it is so much more then a clock.
My heart goes out to you. It must be a very difficult time for you. I hope in time, your heart will heal and smile once again.
I love seeing your new creations, as you are very gifted. All of your creations have so much soul in them...they have a Life all their own.

She's absolutely magical! Such a peaceful look on her face. I've come back to this picture at least 7 times yesterday!
So beautiful! It would be hard to let go, but then again I always seem to give my creations away. I think I've just been inspired!
