Someone’s happy today 🥰

I finally got to paint after a long while! And I have pulpandpigmentph to thank for this. They reached out to ask if I could try the cansonpaper Montval and sent this pad and the winsorandnewton travel brush the other day. 

With so much on my plate right now, I’d think I would never have time to paint. I hate to paint under time pressure. It takes the joy out of it. So, I’d rather do the “more important things.”

But I was curious and I just had to do this today 😆 

Those who have been with me on this art journey would know when I’m actually enjoying or relaxing when I paint. I definitely had a meditative moment with this one. 

Will share more insights on this soon. Need to get back to work. Yes, on a Sunday. But I’m not complaining 😄
