done or not done??

i can't decide
is she done?
i'm tempted to paint the background 
gold 
or 
silver
and make her 
really flashy

however,
i like the simplicity and elegance of how she is now

painted pillow #2

i did it again!
another painted pillow
i've been working on this piece for months
he just didn't seem right
until now :)

here's how he evolved
sewn bench with acrylic background

i stretched him
thinking he'll hang on the wall
like

i cut him off the stretchers 
he's so happy with lollipop
and
much more fun as a pillow, right?
