With a hot cup of tea and a cool spot in the shade of our B&B's front porch, this charming brick house called to me. With some quick line work, I started in with my watercolors. When I first used these little pan sets, I wiped the mixing areas clean after every use, keeping them shiny and new. Now, I find it's much faster for me to leave those dried mixes on the tray! With a bit of water from my water brushpen, the color reactivates, and I've skipped a mixing step. Often I can just pick up a bit of another color, drop it right into the old mix, and voila, I'm already painting. I'm all about time saving measures, and this works well with my limited mixing style. I never would have believed how much is enjoy ink and watercolor painting, just two short years ago. ALWAYS keep learning, the forward progress can be invigorating! Painting number 2029 in 2029 days.
