Monday after tennis I went to the Watercolor League Meeting. The speaker was a professional and she critiquing paintings othe the different members. I brought a painting that I had done with Trilbe. The painting was a bunch of daffodils in a kitchen vase. I kept it on the seat beside me and never had it critiqued. I am mad at myself now. I ws embarrassed because I thought it was such a simple subject. That was silly since many of the subjects were much more amateurish than mine. The theme of the group this year is going from Amateur to Professional. I need help on this topic.
I just looked out the window and saw our neighbors, Peter and Mary talking to Charlie Rivers. They stoped and chatted for awhile and then resumed their walk around the lake. There dog stayed longer but now he is gone too.
I have a load of wash in the washer. I was going to go to knitting but decided I had too much to do here.
The most difficult thing about watercolor is the transparency. You are suppose to see some of the previous colors underneath what you paint. The water gets real runny too. I am going to try and paint and think about colors everyday and maybe I will master it.
