Inspiration Avenue Weekly Challenge: Self Portrait Okay ~ this week may prove to be quite a challenge

for some of us; I know it will be for me.

I have a busy, chaotic yet colorful life.
That was what I was going for.
Mounted canvas, paint and collage work.
It was still wet when I photographed (kids needed to run off with our only camera) so it a wee shiny.

I will also share the ones I DO like:

This one as well...This was one I made for another similar challenge.
This is my favorite though... by far!
