Beautiful! Man, flowers have been making a big comeback in watercolour lately! I'm totally hooked on some YouTubers! The ones that minimal talk when they paint or have no music put me right to sleep (in a good way).
I've really been getting into watercolour too lately... I was doing one a day before I got too busy at the Cafe... I'm a bit shy to show anything yet but it's coming along.

Thanks so much, Matt! I agree, I love that flowers are making a really big comeback. I watch a few watercolor artists on Instagram, and I just love the positivity and I appreciate their insight and creativity. Which YouTubers do you like?
I am looking forward to seeing some of your art, one day, if you feel open to sharing.

That is really lovely! Thank you so much for sharing with us!
I don't know if you might be interested but John Daido Loori, who was the abbot of Zen Mountain Monastery, wrote a lovely book called The Zen of Creativity. He was himself a photographer and he talks about how he approached artistic endeavours based on his Zen practice.

It’s so sad to watch the world’s conflicts. There’s such a lack of common sense.“ - Kodo Sawaki Roshi - To You (Page 66)

Very pretty! I just started learning watercolor. I signed up for a class on Sept 15. I just hope I can find time to keep practicing.

Hi Ekai! Thank you so much. I haven't been practicing a whole lot, so I'm trying to get back to it. I hope you enjoy your class! I'd love to see some of your work if you are ever interested in sharing.
