Walk Right In
This is one of those art inquiries where my whole self just walked right in to presence, to the call and response of creating something with the limited materials I had with me, in the setting where I found myself, letting the hand-and-eye dance move through me in whatever way it would.

The creative process can be capricious—I sure am grateful for those times when the stars line up for all the glories of process to be in full swing, outcome be damned. I was actually surprised to kinda like the outcome here, too! Thanks for your welcome nods to subject matter, color, composition, and texture, MaryAnn.

RoseAnne, so appreciative of your feedback here! What’s really fun for me is that I was playing with watercolor, with which I have little experience, AND I was mixing other media with the watercolor without knowing what to expect, again because I have little experience. All of which put me in a good beginner’s mind space, and precluded ‘control’ that I might otherwise have exerted. I, too, find the sky very appealing in its softness and textures. I ended up feeling ‘rewarded’ for my experimenting and mucking about : )
love love LOVE the unexpected response to this piece! Grinning ear to ear back atcha.
