10 minutes watercolor

I have thought about doing this for quite a while…
It’s quite challenging to paint a watercolor within 10 minutes even though it’s only a postcard size.
I have to figure out the composition in mind first, then put the right colors on the pallete. The initial wash can’t be too wet otherwise I wouldn’t be able to paint anything on top of it. I have to also control the time of mixing colors and changing the right size of brushes accordingly, let alone holding a camera, keep an eye on the camera screen so the video won’t be out of focus while painting.
It’s fun to do though. I did a total of three today; the first one is a completely mess as the video is constantly out of focus.
I like the fact that I can see my own getures and become more conscious about the decsisons I made while painting, which I tend to ignore normally.
