There is something very soothing about the concentration and repetition. (Though I will admit that looking at the results of other people's efforts a.k.a. "Eye Candy" is a lot of fun too!)Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440393996804815125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33020106.post-38599659450879438382018-07-11T10:01:54.016-05:002018-07-11T10:01:54.016-05:00Stokes, I find it very very therapeutic to paint. ...Stokes, I find it very very therapeutic to paint.

So cock- ups are not uncommon. I have always been a slowish painter but these days sometimes it is glacial - but I still get the little lead gits done in the end.
