Default "Awakening"

Another piece of form work from me this is "Awakening". Or as I put it on my Etsy listing, "A young woman stretching and greeting the day, this is the essence of 'Awakening'. Some days just start better than others, and with this young woman with you, wouldn't they all?"

Many thanks to Jim for giving us all the push needed to get our stuff out there in the marketplace!

Thank you I love this pose. The head was the hardest part to do on this one, I really couldn't wrap my head round it, so to speak, then all at once I got it. Quite pleased with this one now

Very nice piece! Sounds like you've had a bit of an "awakening" yourself in getting your head around it. It's great when you get those "aha" moments!
