I'm a graphic designer from Finland who teaches using computers in designing, and whose favourite areas are vector graphics and typography and painting as well digitally as with traditional methods. - All said in one sentence...
I read a lot, I smoke a lot --- I'm not anymore young, beautiful and slim;-)BIOI graduated at Helsinki University some 20 years ago as M.A. - main subjects philosophy, aesthetics and Finnish language and Finnish literature. As a philosopher;-) I couldn't have a permanent job... I have been a teacher in many places; teaching both children and adults.
I am a self-made graphic designer and computer aided designing teacher. My very best interest lies - besides the pictures - on typography, in theory and in practise. I work as a free lancer.
I have the home page of my own - but unfortunately they are all in Finnish. But the adress is not a secret: www.valt.helsinki.fi/blogs/titta
All my studying materials are there - I teach quite a lot at Helsinki University.
Personal life: I live with my big black dog, Kirppu (in English "a flea") in Helsinki.

From the clue you left in the forum, I see this as being about her putting up with her lot (a less-than-perfect relationship) and being miserable in the process. She's content to "let the grass grow under her feet", in this case from her hair as she stays put, fed up. She's making a lifetime of procrastinating about whether to leave him and move on, or not, hence the title! Beautiful work on her creased face, her hands, her hair and the scene in general. As usual, thought-provoking and engaging hugs :-)

I absolutely love this! Do you ever look in the mirror, rub your face and ask yourself...WHAT are you...DOING?? ~lost

Following that previous painting with the cactus man, this really tells a long story. It is a marvellous painting Titta, done with skill, insight and humor. Her face is so expressive, and the flowers and spiderweb tells the rest. WOW!!!

An excellent painting, Titta!! Wonderful how you tell a story with your painting, I think there are a lot of women who know this feeling, like your woman on the painting!! It is amazing and wonderful done!! Excellent and V

What an excellent painting! The distortion of the woman's face only becomes more pronounced as time passes by. I presume that eventually she will stop wallowing in self-pity and begin a new and better chapter in her life. The past is for learning and the future is for applying those lessons. Excellent art. V

This is stunning Titta beautifully painted, your skills grow so much with every image you make! This is so expressive & really does tell so much of a story & like a moment captured from any story it opens up many possible interpretations. I love the way you painted her face, such sad resignation yet I see those flowers as a symbol of hope growing from her weariness of living a life of dusty memories. I can also see the flowers as a symbol of the bride that never was, gathering dust but living on in her mind! Excellent work & a wonderful addition to the theme ; )

You're right, just think of all the football she's missed on the telly while sitting there brooding; beautifully expressed despondency, the spider and web is a great touch.
