The colors are not showing true. the top paddle has more green, the bottom a bit more blue. They look the same to me here. This is the second piece I worked on today. The first just needs more time. I will finish it tomorrow. This was my response to the detail in that. K.I.S.S.

My plan for this post was to include a slide show of the mountains today. But just when I thought I had it all ready, it wasn’t. Again, I will have that for tomorrow. Lots of starts today, without endings. But I did manage to make a delicious chicken soup. From start to finish.

Almost finished with Leslie’s challenge. This time it went by fast.

    Love these images. You make the watercolour look very easy! Hate it when you scan your image and the colours are off. Still looks great though!

        One thing I have learned from this challenge is to step back. Sometimes looking back you might even be surprised…Did I do that? Shana Tova, we are having sad days right now, but we have hope that next year we will move forward toward Peace…for us and the world!

          Wouldn’t that be wonderful Carol. Sometimes it feels like all we can do is to keep hope alive. And pray. But hope and prayer are strong forces, as it is proven time and time again. I have been pleased with most of my pieces in this challenge. Amazing to say that. Even for the changes I would like to make. Those ideas are leading me on to new work 🙂 So glad we took the journey together Carol! Fun chatting with you at 12 am my time. 🙂
