Water Lilies 2
I soaked the paper for a few minutes in water, drained it and it dried just enough to start painting. The paper was the perfect combination of damp enough to look like a wet-in-wet painting, yet dry enough that the paint stayed where I put it. I like the understated fish. I used to feel I needed to fill everything in, leaving nothing to the imagination. I'm learning, in more than just painting, that less is more.
