This is my oldest’s new, bed-time routine; made for him to read & follow. The clocks are shiny (like a whiteboard), so, you can rub out the clock hands and change the time…
I can’t help myself; sometimes (just, maybe…), I go too far.
Nah.

I spent a long time simply making all the different elements and types of leaves and so, when it came to constructing the 3D elements of this piece, I kept hesitating. What if I couldn’t get it to work? It was a question I didn’t really want answered…
But I finally braced myself and…voila. It’s working so far; now for the faces and filling the little gaps within the petal mass. Wish me luck…
