3:54 PM: i started macro watercolor 3 today, but had some unavoidable interruptions, which is not the greatest thing when making a watercolor. so i stopped and will see if i can resume in the morning.
it could very well stand as a completed piece, so i’ll see how i feel about it tomorrow. we might go out walking as soon as mikela gets off her call, but it’s windy as hell & it might be better to wait till tomorrow.
actually in it’s present state, this one is much closer to the delicate balance possible with a watercolor than the previous two. as matisse once said:” ….i had forgotten all the little details and, in my pictures, retained only the striking and poetic side. until then i had been pursued by the love of exactness, which most people mistake for truth.”
