TD Painting

As many know I took up painting a couple of months ago as a form of cancer therapy to reduce anxiety. I've been struggling with my lack of painting skills.

Today I signed up for Skillshare and took a watercolour course offered by Louise De Masi in Australia. She walked through how to paint a Sun Conure bird. Not to blow my own horn but I feel like my watercolour painting just moved to a whole new level.

MeiLiang pan paints on Artistico Extra White 100% cold pressed paper.

Lack of painting skills.... Snicker!

TD, your skills are great! Don't try to talk yourself out of that! And they're getting better with every painting you do....!

And your painting is BEAUTIFUL. Keep it up. Don't worry about what you think you can't do. Just focus on using your obvious skills.

Another watercolour painting based on a project in Louise De Masi's "fox" class on Skillshare.

You will soon be able to open your own gallery, TD.

Look forward to seeing each one. I love you
