parting is such sweet sorrow

have you ever made (or owned) something that just saddens you when you part?? last week i sold/ship off my robot head i had made for Artomatic (write up coming soon!) to a fellow artist, Peter E. Harper.

i made J take one last picture before i packed it off...despite the smile, i felt a little sad. this piece was one of my favorites! i spent hours at the local hardware store looking for the perfect parts to match my sketch. i know it's in a loving home now though...sigh.
