uhohhh...yep..you know, I was taught that you should give the same attention to all of the canvas, whether it is the background, or the form. The love and preciousness for each stroke you do should have the same passion

When you are satisfied with 99% and don't want to change the last bit, it is still not finished. And Changing the last 1% can mean you have to change 40% again...It is a struggle, but eventually you will be much happier if you get it 100%. The canvas will tell you what need to be worked on
