hehe, thanx Cate, a little comical look at ‘balance’.... i often feel like this…...wanting time for pleasure and all the other things that must be done each day, and yet, seeming to have too little to go ‘round :) xxx

Nice work Karin, has a lot of meaning.

I am loving this new series Karin….I can see that you are putting all of yourself into these works and that they are intricately woven into your psyche…she is looking upwards and yet straight ahead, as if she is aware of all that needs to be done, but still has that goal, that place that she must reach, come hell or high water…she is a bit weighted down by responsibilities and sometimes they are too mush for her…witnness the heavy lids to her eyes, but she is going to get there…I know it…
Janis Zroback
Much for her…sorry…witness…[sp] .....(I’m too tired tonight)...

Awesome, I really like your new character style. Similar but yet totally different. Excellent
Linda Callaghan
this is soo superb Karin..and so true for most of us…trying to balance and I rekcon juggle things around in our life to fit it all in is a battle sometimes. You have caught this perfectly in her expression and the object surrounding her…happy you are posting works again as missed them!
Pip Gerard
Oh wow K I’m loving this sooo sooo much!!
Forr me… I’ve found …finding and striving for balance is my biggest life lesson I think – finding the balance in everything – A very… very hard thing to do!! but worth striving for to work towards a complete and true life.
I’m definitely one that tends to tip the scales far too far in either direction. :D
I myself, believe balance is the answer to so many many things!
xoxoxo

this speaks volumes, karin…..finding that balance within us is an ongoing process…i love how you have portrayed it….
Marion Cullen
Now, my friend, THIS is a creation straight from the heart. It speaks to us through our own experiences, and connects us all intimately with each other and with you, the artist. The finest balance I believe one can achieve on both a personal and artisitc level.

hehe… i love this piece.. i can somehow see myself in here~ lolz!! especially with the many deadlines i have to meet this month.. goodness!! XD
i love her hair! it looks like wet, like she’d just finish her bath, now getting ready for the day where there’s sooo many things to do!! and yet she still has this lil smile on her face, taking great care to balance the lil egg on her head, looking forward to the rainbow.. i wonder what does each symbol stands for.. but no hurries, Karin! i want you to reply only when you have time! make sure to get enough rest, k!! lots and love and hugs!!
