The Journey Begins

I decided to journal my exploration of watercolor. I'm not sure if I'm even going to share this blog with anyone, but I wanted to keep a record of what I hope will be my progress in this area.

This is the first retirement promise to myself that I have actually kept - to try something I was not comfortable with in the arts. I have never really worked with color and my artistic skills are pretty rusty. I signed up for a class at the Mechanicsburg Association. (Watercolor for Everyone - Ron Schloyer)

I'm enjoying the painting so far, but find that I'm falling back on safe techniques and a pretty realistic painting style. I'm hoping that will change and evolve with practice.
