Imagine pulling out a leather portfolio of your paintings and finding a stash of watercolours that date to 1990. Nice find. I did that the other day. As I recall, this particular painting was not an original scene with me. I likely borrowed it from something I saw in an art magazine, liked it well enough and it gave me the opportunity to paint some soft colours and textures. I enjoyed watercolours exclusively for many years because of the way colours flow, sometimes sponteously, to produce an occasional surprise effect. The artist still takes credit for these surprises.
