Happy Holidays to all!
This was a five minute watercolor painting before preparing Christmas Eve dinner. It's always good to put something down. You can always come back to it later, if necessary.
The paper(140 lb) buckled as the picture-side was wet but I soaked the back before I laid it down on a protective board. It's all good as far as experimenting with your materials and fine-tuning your artistic process.
I learn the most when I am unprepared for an outcome. After all, John Singer Sargent famously stated that 'painting in watercolor is making the most of an emergency'.
