That’s probably what I will end up doing, Pat. I’m thinking of improving some other skills, so I’m always checking this thread to see what others are up to.
I have decided to try Chinese water colour painting, I have wanted to try for years and never got round to it, so I thought maybe this is the time to try, and maybe take my mind off all the negative thoughts in my head at the moment and turn them into positives! Has anyone acquired this skill on here? @Dovefromabove and @Pat E I know you both paint, any tips on this medium please? I have ordered ink and chinese paints, have yet to order Xuan paper, I think semi treated is ok for beginners? I already have some brushes so now can't wait to get started!
Floralies, I’ve tried, but find the brushes are too big for me. I’m used to using very small brushes for botanic art, such as 000. My Chinese brushes are still there in my art room, but not tempting me 😳. Sorry I can’t be more help.
Love the blanket @pitter-patter. I do watercolour painting but not tried Chinese style at the moment I’m using coloured art pencils. I’ll post a couple of my attempts when I get a minute

Someone gave me a boot scraper for Christmas. I thought it was too nice to scrape my wellies on so I made it into a clock.
