I was watching artist Leslie Stroz on YouTube as she began a new challenge, painting 100 tiny paintings in a year. No prompts, no rules, no pressure — it sounds like fun but I’m not sure if I want to commit to 100. So I cut down a few small pieces of unused hot press watercolor paper I had, making 40 blank papers approximately 1 3/4 x 2 1/2”. I used a corner punch to round the corners.
The papers, a small container holding a bit of kneaded eraser, and roll of washi tape are stored in a hinged tin box I once used as a palette. A small glass nearby holds a few brushes, a fine pencil, and fine liner.
And for my first attempt, our pool house and west pasture as they looked after this year’s unexpected snowfall. I used the tape to hold the paper to a small clipboard as I painted it. After first sketching about the whole thing in my journal, of course. 😁
