I am not that thrilled with this finished piece. I think it is the dark green rock shapes. Do you like it?
Also, I think Step 6 looks better in the photo than it did in person. The spirit people looked more prominent to me when the piece was on my design wall; however, maybe I should have lived with it a little before added the turquoise sponging over them. One thing I noticed as I took pictures of the steps is that the work almost always looked better in the photo than on the design wall. Any thoughts?

You're right on all counts. I think part of the issue is that those turquoise blobs are so prominent they are distracting. This might be just fine, cut up.
But yes - sometimes it does pay to live with something before you go on. Ask me how I know.
These look really interesting. You need to send a reminder to ACN list that you are blogging!
Whoops. I wasn't finished! The wind has blown from AZ to TX this am. I think I'll wait to do my dyeing for a warmer day! S
