A thousand pieces!

Sent in my second art submission for the spn_reversebang. \o/ I'm quite pleased with what I made even though I had to work on it last minute due to being busy all week and it was something different than I originally had in mind. I lost inspiration and time after being occupied with registering on professional websites and filling out my resumé all day. I still have no idea how long I'll still have my full job, but the bossman did announce he'd start the whole procedure with the unemployment agency again in the near future, so I need to be prepared for job-hunting.

I had wanted to design something based on a campy jigsaw puzzle I got for my birthday, featuring the painted over the top cover of a romance novel. That turned out to be too elaborate for my brain to handle at the moment. I did however sit down to actually start on the puzzle. Never done that before and it was as relaxing as I hoped it would be (once I realized it wasn't a race against the clock;)


See what I mean about the cover? How awesome would it be if I could paint J2 like that:)


This took me about 45 minutes. I kept getting distracted by the pretty colours of the pieces while looking for all the border pieces.


An hour and a half. Learning to focus on the pieces I need.


Two and a half hours; time flies when you're having fun!


At least I got the most important part:)


I plan to do a bit every night this week, to destress from work. So far I'm really enjoying it, even if it means I'm away from the internet *grins*.

ETA: Thank you, marciaelena for the virtual gift! I could definitely use a cuddle today, excellent timing:)

Worked on my puzzle for an hour tonight; it's addictive!
