posting a failure . . .



Today has been a day of distractions. At the last minute, I decided to paint this sunrise over the Gulf of Mexico — It should be easy enough, right?

With grandkids interrupting and Bardie checking out my paint water, wet-on-wet areas either too wet or drying too quickly, my forgetting to lay down the yellow first before the oranges . . . I see this daily painting as a total failure! But it’s part of the learning process so I’m posting it anyway.


This is the actual photograph I took a couple of years ago camping on Mustang Island as we woke up.

  1. We all have those kind of painting days! But you’re right it is part of the learning process—therefore it is another step toward progress!

    1. That’s why I went ahead and posted it. We are all learning and can gain from seeing others’ progress, even the not-so-good stuff!
