So, I got out my watercolors and dabbled this past weekend. It wasn’t pretty. I’m totally out of practice. And yet, I accomplished the hardest part: unpacking the paints, taping down paper, and applying brushes to paint to paper.

Still, I had a lot of fun and enjoyed the bliss of being lost in a project for a couple of hours. So, I’ve decided to dust off one of my watercolor manuals and work my way through some of the exercises.

Remember: it’s the not the result, but the process.
