    "ultimately the goal is not to get it perfect, it is to finish the piece" this advice doesn't only apply to art :p

      Why not get a little paintbox, a pad of paper and an aqua brush you fill with water and just curl up and experiment for relaxation? No pressure. Just you. Doodle.

    I am amazed at your starting point- great composition. Too many artists have great paintings but fail in balancing the elements of the scene. You do this well in so many of your watercolors. You follow it up with the second important element. Creating a focal point! Great job! Love your work!

    Thak you, Jillee! Your encouragement got me going. The "ugly phase" is drying right now. I happened to find a phto of a skyline with blue and yellow skies, grey clouds and orange sunlight reflections in windows. Seems just right for this - to me - new technique.
    What I particulary enjoy about your approach is the playfulness. No grid, no tracing paper, just two eyes and a hand. Wonderful!
    You are gifted in many ways. 💫

    The ugly stage has made me quit so many projects, I can't even count them all. Thats why I prefer to do the outlines first before applying color to my art works. That way my outlines keep me motivated to keep going and cross the ugly stage and finish my work.

    Your "not perfect" is so perfect. I really wish I could learn to do stuff like this so that I could enjoy doing it, but I just don't have the time and motivation to do so, it seems. That's a lame excuse, so I need to work on that.

    Hi Jillee, it's good to see how you bring the picture together after a very loose start, and the final painting was very atmospheric, if I may ask your advice on flattening a finished painting if buckling occurs, not having stretched it beforehand, ? Many thanks for your time, stay safe, best wishe's, Stuart Uk.
