I was in Auburn today for a Plein Air paintout. I put together a pretty good piece and stopped before I was really done to go to lunch with hubby. When I came back to my spot I didn’t want to get out all my paints so instead I decided to do my direct watercolor sketch for today.
I really didn’t think I would do very well at the judging that afternoon anyway.
I quickly finished this piece and went to turn in my oil painting piece. While we waited for the judging we went and had a glass of wine and spent time talking with people. So of course you’re going to guess… I won 3rd place. Could have picked me up off the ground. Totally unexpected. I think I needed that bit of reinforcement and encouragement. To be truthful I’ve been a bit discouraged lately.
That’s it for now... bye.
