384 Proud



Some days are better than others.  Today I painted four small paintings and I am unhappy with all of them.  I'd like to blame it on the all-day, allergy-related sneezing and nose-blowing, but I know that a bad painting day is still a good day.  Today I learned that painting with acrylics on watercolor paper is not enjoyable to me, even though to many artists, it is.   I also learned that even though my two and only two poppy flowers are precious to me, they do not make a good painting. 
Tomorrow will be a better day.

372 Peacock Feather

Although I am enjoying painting with watercolors, I don't think it will take the place of my acrylics.  I have been experimenting and "playing" with different products.  This painting has a hint of metallic water color and it glistens in just the right places.  Unfortunately, it is so subtle that it doesn't show up in the photograph.
