This was going to be a nice beachy scene with a white house and rocky coastline . . . but things got out of hand. First, a part of me blames the paper – it is student grade and did not seem up to the task of a lot of large swaths of wet washes. Next, I got frustrated. And I was hungry. And getting quite annoyed. So, I just grabbed stuff and sort of scribbled on it – take that, you nasty painting! Anyway, this is the result, and while it is certainly no beauty, it makes me remember I do want to do some nocturnes – night paintings, night colors. How can that be done?!
Journey by Paper 
Not the greatest you’ve ever done, maybe it’s good to learn what not to do though! (Eat first, get good paper, have a cup of tea when you get frustrated and then go back to it).

Watercolor is a strange beast, and in reality, bad paper can break a painting. I had a beautiful tablet of high quality cotton paper once – only to find the sizing was off. That was not a good experience. And right, eat! So, it was a good adventure as I stopped myself – the painting was a total mash-up – but messing it made me think and remember I do want to try a nocturne! So good came out of it. And thanks, Fraggy!
