Oh my – I made it through the first day. I am a bit exhausted. It was somewhat intimidating. All the other participants have been watercolor painting for years and I am right in the middle of all this having not even done a handful of decent paintings.

Bev was wonderful. She did two demonstrations and patiently answered all my questions and after a few hours I decided to loosen up and just do it. After all it’s just paint and water on paper, right? 🙂  Today’s fruit of hard work is still at my table at Cole Gallery, it needs to dry. I’ll post it later.

When I got home I checked my email and found the following quote in my inbox:
