Well, I started working on this new piece. I thought I would use the watercolor paint in a heavy fashion, but I decided not to. I’m trying to go slow. Keep the highlights clean, work the shadows down. Although I wanted to abstract it I think I will just go with what I see and don’t try for anything in particular. Just paint.
Instead of working in the basement studio, dark and away from everything, I brought the work upstairs near a bright window. What good is a studio if I’m going to be painting in my dining room? Forget it…I know, I have a space, but it’s not ideal. Someday, a loft with north facing windows. I can daydream. In the meantime, it’s back to work.
Looking good! My studio is upstairs, and I usually bring my work to the kitchen also- I call it my studio, but it is more of a supply room!

Is that on Arches? I ask because I think I can see some cockling – maybe its a trick of the lens.
Good for you for just painting 🙂
Yes, Pat it is the Arches paper.I decided to keep going on the Arches and use the other as last resort. You’ll have to translate ‘cockling’!
Sheryl it’s nice to have a space, nicer to have a great space, which I do not have. By great space I mean window walls!
