Content Notes: I used this tutorial for the background, did two test runs on small format pieces, one of which turned out a lot better than this - it was a lot easier to create this type of background without having to paint around a shape that was supposed to stay white. Ah well. Next time I'll probably use masking tape to cover the area.

Hope is a strange invention

Hope is a strange invention -
A Patent of the Heart -
In unremitting action
Yet never wearing out -

Of this electric Adjunct
Not anything is known
But its unique momentum
Embellish all we own -

Dreamy and tender. I love the background and it looks like you've managed that white space really well!

Thank you! <3 It was lots of painstaking painting-around but it worked.
