We all know what it's like to try something new.
I woke up Monday morning with a clear indication to paint using watercolors. Totally new medium for me but I thought "what the heck". How will I know if I like it or not if I don't give it a try. So I began.
I did these in the last 3 days. I can see improvement by the time I finished portrait #4, yet I have a very long way to go. Not sure if watercolring is for me or not so until I know for sure I will keep trying. I am so used to using an eraser to correct my markings and with watercolors you can't do that. On several of the protraits I tried to correct an error and ended up removing paper instead. OOps! Finally by portrait #4 I knew to just walk away.

Great job, I'm working with watercolours again and they can be very challenging.
