Grass Grows Quickly

This is a detail of a field of grass I created from pine needles for my picture book, Choose With Love.

The grass grows so quickly when you step away for a while. Before you know it, it’s overgrown and needs upkeep. That’s where I’m at with my project at the moment: needing some focused attention to move it to the next place. From the very start of this project, it has come in starts and stops, and upkeep is a real thing. Once I’ve let the grass grow long, it’s harder to get back to it.
