I was playing with my watercolor on the cardboard and the drips and bleeds of the paint on the surface. Watercolor is interesting to experiment with because you will have a different experience and results depending on the absorbency of the surface, the quality of the paint (and brushes), and, obviously, how much water you use.

I ended up washing off the color experimentation layer and using more earthy tones, cut it down, and turned it into a postcard to send to my friend Katharine. I decided the eyes were lined up strangely, but I didn’t want to paint on it more (though I ended up adding some definition to her left eye), so I collaged over her right eye (but I didn’t snap another photo).
I guess I need to practice WordPress (and watercolor) some more, because I still can’t figure out why I can’t add to or edit a text block I already wrote, once I click out of it. Peace and Love and Cheers to experimentation (and PLAYING!) with paint!
edit to add: I just tried something I hadn’t seen before, opening the code editor version, and adding directly into the html; which is working π
