"Grandma's Cup"

I took me as long to set up and think about what, how and why I wanted to paint than actually painting. Lot's of layering here and since I don't use a hair dryer and always let it dry really well there's a lot of down time. As I look at it now I think I might soften the little leaf that's pointing straight north. It's always gentler to to have directional shapes neither completely verticle or horizontal.. Well, for me anyway.
