Finishing a Painting

"Wow...it has been longer than I thought since I have written my blog.  I promised to post the finished painting and so here it is, finally finished.....I think!  

I had a friend give me one more critique last night.  So, now it is signed and almost dry.  I plan to show it in The Artists Gallery's "Palette of Spring" Exhibition , opening on Friday, May 6th.  

It often takes me a long time to really know if a painting is finished.  I like to keep it around for several months to just look at it and evaluate it before putting it in an exhibition.  And even when a painting does go into an exhibition, I evaluate it again because paintings can look very different out of the studio and in a new setting.  

Is a painting ever really finished?  Da Vinci carried his around for years.
