Well, it's been three and a half years since I finished a watercolor. And what a three and a half years it was-- I started a business, got engaged, moved in with my fiance and we had a baby.
This was last Wednesday. There are frustrations at work and I took half an hour to sketch. I've been living up at 81st Street for over 2 years now and just recently, since Spring has sprung, I have started walking to work regularly. I guess without thinking, I got used to charging to the subway and zipping three stops to work. But walking is relaxing and gives you time to think or just mentally drift. It's 3 Avenues over to the Park then 20 blocks down the bridle path tucked under the West wall of the Park. Marvelous weather for a mile and a half stroll; sunny yet still a little chilly but comfortable, not cold, and not yet humid (that'll come next month.) There are a few runners and walkers on the bridle path but its not too busy - almost like a walk in the woods. Lovely. I'd love to believe I'll start producing watercolors again more regularly but we'll have to see...
