JOURNALING (174 words):
My love for watercolor began when I was a teenager because of the artwork of my future father-in-law. He was an amazing watercolorist and the impetus for my interest. When I was 19, I took a class, bought some cheap paint and started practicing. Life soon got in the way, and my supplies started gathering dust. Over the years, I’d take a class here and there but never devoted any real time to it. In 1997, I discovered scrapbooking and all other creative endeavors (counted cross stitch, painting, etc.) took a backseat to this all-consuming hobby.
Fast forward to 2019. I’ve rediscovered my love for watercolor and the possibilities of incorporating it into my memory-keeping and other papercrafts. I’ve invested a significant amount of money in Daniel Smith and other artist-quality paints (no more student-grade paints!), superior brushes and nothing but 100% cotton paper. I’ve taken new classes and still have more on the horizon. Watercolor has a mind of its own, and I can’t wait to see what else it can teach me.
