Practice puts brains in your muscles.
Sam Snead
I have been neglecting my watercolor practice lately, so it was nice to get a little time with it this weekend. While these pictures still aren’t close to those of the YouTube instructor, I am fairly pleased with how they turned out. I still need more work with blending colors and choosing those that fit well together, but I know in time it will come. I generally like my paintings better after I set them aside for a bit ๐
Practice is the best of all instructors.

If those results are from a lack of practice, wow. Good work Beth. We all need to find time for what makes us happy. Thanks for sharing. Allan
Thank you Allan๐ I give total credit to the YouTube tutors! You should see their work!! ๐คฉ My watercolors frustrate me sometimes, but ultimately they do make me very happy ๐ Thanks for another very nice comment! ๐
Great to see you back painting Beth.
Thank you so much! ๐ I have to remember that it’s okay sometimes to let responsibilities wait for a day ๐ Hope you have a great day!
You too ๐
Wow! I really like your paintings, especially the one with the purple flowers!
Thank you so much, Shruthi! ๐ It feels nice to be creative again. I truly appreciate you taking the time to leave such a kind comment!
Youโre most welcome!
Beautiful. Sometimes a break away helps sharpen the act of creativity.
Very true, Goff! ๐ It is a good reminder that a little break from day to day responsibilities is a good thing! ๐ Thank you for taking the time to comment! Hope you have a wonderful day!

You are very welcome. You have a great day as well. ๐
Wow! You’re so talented Beth! They’re beautiful! ๐
You are too kind, Janie! ๐งก๐๐งก The teachers on YouTube make it look so effortless, but not so for me. ๐ Someday, with much more practice, I hope to be able to know the colors better and to be able to just sit and paint without feeling the need for a tutorial. ๐ I truly appreciate your kind encouragement! โค
Keep up the great effort and enjoy every moment of painting! I love to see what you create! ๐
Very nice!

Thank you so much Elaiza! โค It was very nice of you to take the time to leave such a kind comment! ๐
You got the flower look down well. What could you add to each painting background?
I did the splatters, but I’ll bet a nice colorful mat behind them would dress them up significantly. ๐
