Watercolors come in teeny boxes, and all you need is a brush and some thick paper. You donāt even have to watercolor, just bring the tin around, because if you happen to catch a watercoloring vibe youāll have them, and if you donāt itās your way out. Kinda like, I bet you didnāt know I could quit my job right now and go to a park to watercolor instead. Watercolors = Iām in charge of my life. Does this make sense.
Just like a small little set. Gouache is good because it dries really fast and you donāt need much water. If i have space for a laptop i have space for paints.Feel so much happier when i look back through my notebook and there's colours instead of weird sentences :)
one thing iāve learned in any and every trying time in my life... if no one got me, my watercolors do. iāve kept a watercolor journal consistently since i was a lil kid. it was how i learned to make art, painting by my lonesome in my room. though i canāt argue iām goodā¦ the creative practice i made all those years ago makes it sacred.
so you donāt have to ask it like three months from now, ie you can just say āremind me your name one more timeā a few times in the first hour of meeting someone so you can avoid feeling legitimately insane later.
For example, I do not feel so comfortable with birds when theyāre nearby. I donāt like how the head moves, and I donāt want it to land on my head, peck my eyes out, etcetera. That said, when I look up at the sky and birds are flying together in a beautiful shape, that could make me cry. So to me, thatās interesting.
to the person because it actually will never resolve on its own and I actually think there is a lot of humanity to be found in the surprising amount of grace with which people receive your feelings when you make them known. This is making me feel like I need a newsletterā¦
