Emergence

 

Looking at these photos, I think the image was stronger before I added the additional marks on the left hand side of the piece. In the past, I haven't reworked things once I considered them to be "finished." That may now change. If it does, I will share it here. 

Interesting how the camera helps you to see your work differently.
