I was going to try some direct watercolor last night. In direct watercolor you paint with the watercolor without drawing first with a pencil or pen. I didn't have any water and I didn't want to use the waterbrushes. Lazy me, I decided to just use the last of my coffee as paint. It would have worked better if it had been a little stronger.
When it got dry I did add some lines with a brown and dark brown Micron 005, bronze color with a Pigma brush pen, and more dark brown with a Prismacolor chisal. I see a few more bushes to the right, do you?
It is doctor day for Gene and I. We had to fast. I think it is the day for the Medicare checkups so they test our walking, thinking, strength, etc. Blood tests and more. My mental/memory is much worse than a year ago. Is it age or stress? Guess I will find out today. We will see Dr. Pompeyo Chavez. He is a super doctor. He is with Med-VIP so is on call any time and we can see him any day. It is more expensive but worth every penny. He is from Peru, so that is a plus for Gene. They can talk in Spanish and remember good or bad times in Lima. Ha. We went with him and his wife for Peruvian food in Austin a couple of times.
Maybe I will sketch.
