Watercolour sketch 1/30

The view from our deck: the Tararua Mountains

I haven't painted in maybe a year now, I think. I can't even remember which colours are which in my palette. I'll have to completely redo my palette, of course. I've forgotten which colours lift and which don't. I've forgotten which colours I used to mix for everything. I've even forgotten how to do clouds.

So I am going to try and do a quick 1-2 minute mini (2x2 inch) watercolour sketch of something each day if possible. Hopefully I will look back after 30 days and see lots of improvement!
