Pleasantly surprised that this little foray turned out so well - as far as I'm concerned 😂. Maybe the clue to all this is just to chill the f*ck out, jump right in and have a ball while at it 💃🥳

Trying out my new #whitenightswatercolors and a new approach omitting ink entirely. This softer feel is also interesting - bit of a dreamier air to it and had fun using the rigger for the outlines 👌 The purple shadows looked too dark when laid down but dried up quite delicately - also I mixed the wrong colors 😂. They always say not to be afraid of the darks (still am!) so still learning the ropes on that.

Breakfast view at the farm - minus most of the clutter 😅
Reverse progress too (regress?🤔) before the purple overhang became a mess I decided to live with 🙊
