Because It's The Right Thing To Do

Math has never been my strong point, and some days I make mistakes; this was one of them. I failed to notice that I was working with an 8" x 48" canvas instead of the 9" x 49" size of the reference photo I was working from. It wasn't until I started painting design elements at the bottom of the canvas that I realized I was an inch short; then I had to decide whether to keep going (it didn't look that bad) or wipe it all out and start over.

Well, after fretting for a while, i decided to wipe it out and start over. But it's aggravating.
