It's Puzzling

My 2nd piece is the same size as the cheetah (12 x 12).  They each took about 2 weeks.  I had such fun picking papers and making feathers for this vibrant Raven.  I like that I can walk away when I'm done for the day, leave it out and think about my next steps without anything changing color or consistency during that time.  I can pick up right where I left off.  

 It's much like doing a 2000-piece puzzle.  It looks pretty sad at first, but you kind of have to trust the process.  I am learning to control the ripping and work up in layers.  I'm happy with how this came out.
