watercolour – eRitchie Art

I exploit me

When I discover new drawing or painting techniques I tend to exploit myself. More often than not this sends a work to the trash can.

Watercolour painting after a 20 year break is NOT like riding a bicycle. You fall, you scrape your knees and bleed, but you get back up and carry on.

Large format acrylic paintings are hogging my living space. Time to light them on fire and return to painting with watercolours.

Sometimes a person just needs to say something or do something just for the sake of doing something that is nothing. This is saying nothing.

Patience is required. I am going in a different direction. It appears I have a long way to go. Dang, where are the shortcuts?

I have had enough. Acrylics and large canvas paintings are on hold. Drawing and adding colour is my new focus — if I don’t give up.
