Sometimes it's too hard to say goodbye.

I've been trying all month to work this unfinished piece behind me into a shot, and it just never happened. I had planned to take part in Whiskerino last year, but then forgot about it until the middle of December, so I couldn't participate. On April 11th, I shaved off the beard I had been growing since December, but I couldn't bring myself to part with it, that and I'm too damn crafty, so add together one stencil, some spray glue, and my "clippings," and out came what you see behind me. I think I will have to do this for every beard from now on.

I'm going to miss staring at all your wonderful 'staches, but I'll be back next year.

CLAME to view my "supplies" for this piece. I didn't use the whole thing, in case anyone was curious.

Oh, and I plan on adding the "birth" and "death" dates of the beard in the upper part of the plaque.
