Nice work Mari. I agree that there needs to be time away from a piece so you can see it with fresh eyes. I take little breaks - like this one here - for just a few minutes. Walk away, come back and sure enough you start seeing inconsistencies that need attention.

Mike, I agree, failures are part of the process and can be just as important as the successes. You certainly learn from them!
