A perfect beginning, to my eye. I'm jealous of your few errors. I struggled a long time to get where you are.

Post more often than naught -- ten steps is okay, but don't feel that 20 will overburden your bandwidth allowance here. The intermediate stages are much more useful to many than the "perfected" plateaus. The goofs and the the corrections are every bit as much a part of the process as the gallery-ready slides, and far more instructive and inspirational.

And in fact, if you catch yourself in error, please shout it out. That is the greatest encouragement to all of us who rarely get it right the first time.

Getting it right the first time must, in fact, be about the most boring occupation in the universe. Not that I'll ever know.

Which is a big part of why I don't do watercolour.
