Started doing watercolor after like fifteen years, the last time I did watercolor was when I was in school and then I didn't appreciate what watercoloring was and how you could use the property of water and colors to manipulate your shapes. I didn't really 'get' watercoloring at the time, and now we're having lots of fun playing around with the shapes created by the flow of water and paint, the interaction of different paint fluids, and various solids (such as salt particles among others) within the paints. Also the fact that you can dry different parts of your painting at different times using one of them hair dryers to get interesting effects. It's a low-entry fun activity, and then JD turned a crappy photo of my painting that I sent her into a really nice cutout that I could legitimately use as a mobile phone background, so that was quite exciting.
Gotta explore more of watercolors, and art in general. Note to myself.
