I wanted to try painting with watercolors. Last July I took up a 30 day watercolor challenge. I drew 3" x 3" squares right next to each other on some decent watercolor paper I had in my art stash for years. Every day I would sit down and paint in one small square. I came to realize that I love watercolors and they are delightful to use in an abstract way! This had never occured to me before. I had thought of watercolors in a different way before this experience.
Truth be told, it was the nicest thing I could have done for my 68 year old self. Incredibly, after 30 days of discipline on those three inch squares, it had become habit and I was not ready to stop! Since then, I paint with watercolors every day. I have glaucoma and cataracts; as well as essential tremor. I had thought that I would NEVER be able to do this! Guess what?
Each of us is born with in innate ability to express ourselves, think of children and crayons. My watercolors may not be wonderful to everyone, they bring me such joy and wonder. For it is after all, play! A recess break for my mind. My husband ,is a huge supporter as this practice has also brought me great peace of mind.
Try something new, start small and do it for a period of time to see how it really "fits" your style/world. I just about bet you will be surprised at the results. I love learning new things, it keeps my brain active and curiosity is a wonder filled thing!
