Now that yard stuff is winding down, back to painting. Thought I’d try some abstract watercolor. This is isn’t finished - it’s practice. It looks like cells, maybe cancer. Not sure.

Excited. My 2025 #canning began tonight. I made #Armageddon Pepper Jelly. According to Google it goes well with cream #cheese and crackers. Sounds appropriate for 2025.

It’s been a moment… my gardening and such took true priority for the first 2 quarters of this year 🌱💛
However, my canvas awaits. I have an #idea on how I can paint something meaningful for @robert-l-barry.bsky.social and me. 🎨

In some ways, I feel the process is more beautiful than the product. I’m learning to paint #flowers now!

Ok. Last attempt. Time to #moveon. Every version really did teach me something new… and equally stretched my #patience.

Heard you should #paint the same painting 4x… with each rendition you learn something. Yes. On #2 and wholeheartedly agree.
The second (tilted upright) isn’t finished. Already realizing a few things for attempt #3. #Learning!!

Learning how to paint is a #journey. Tonight I decided to try a #landscape. It’s been a bit since my husband and I travelled so I’m having fun creating places on paper.
Thanks 🎨 Matthew Palmer for the inspo!

I can’t sleep. Thankfully, the #bloodmoon happened so that was cool AND I’m finally cleaning pics off my phone… found my first attempt at #watercolor crocuses.

This painting has taken me some time because I really wanted to do a good job. It’s one thing to paint a sunset that can vary from day to day, but these cuties are consistently perfect.

#Practice moment. Though #Saturday is all about catching up around the house (for us, anyway)— Spent a few minutes learning the personality of my paper and #paint today. Really cool. 🎨

This one was a #nightmare. One day I’ll look back at it and remember what I learned. This was based on a Matthew Palmer tutorial - so talented! Meanwhile, trying. Two weeks into #watercolor art. #enjoyingthejourney

I haven’t finished painting #2.
It’s a definite #learningmoment… trying to figure out the personality of my paint, paper, hands, water. OMG. Going to try to boost my confidence with a landscape sunset sort of thing, I think.

I decided to try to paint from a photograph this time. Learning as I go and excited to see how this turns out.
