This commission is finished, except for taking a photograph that doesn’t have weird shiny spots.
This one is not finished. I love working on this. It’s all I want to paint these days. I want to keep it. I want to paint it again bigger.
STOP IT. This is a commissioned oil painting, and it belongs to someone else. You can paint another for yourself later.
Each time I work on this, the plan is to keep moving ahead. Instead, I keep fixing parts that I thought were finished. 
Could it be that I don’t want to finish working on my current favorite subject?
