Day Thirteen! of the #30x30DirectWatercolor painting marathon for 2023. I show my daily sketch from the Chinese Garden at the MBG, plus! the five (5!) failed attempts that I painted before remembered the kind of silhouette shapes that I love to paint :)

Getting the composition correct takes a good eye. I agree with your mantra, Marc. To get quality, you must get in the quantity.

Ihearing you talk about why you abandoned a painting at mid point was really interesting.

I've been doing a lot of that "oops...didn't work" stuff but success right now is elusive. This direct watercolor stuff is HARD (grin). BTW, did you notice that you've got a photography stalking following you around in the botanical garden [gd&r]
