I chose Helleborus foetidus and regretted it. But this is not unusual two weeks into the project, to make a start and then wish I was doing what someone else is doing. And why must I always work so big? Granted we are working larger than life size but my piece of paper is always so much larger than everyone else's. Feeling generally displeased with my choices and realising how long it would take to do such a big piece in coloured pencil, I elected to go for watercolour. Why not? If not in the class then when? I am thoroughly enjoying it too as I feel no pressure. It is lovely working with a brush and playing. I am trying salt too for effects and have tried cling film and greaseproof. I am so busy at the moment it is hard to find time. With husband away for the week I was painting at 6 this morning! On Sunday it is mother's day and I intend to paint all day.
