The adventure with watercolours continues, albeit with long intervals without picking up a brush. I tried my hand at painting the Ashy Wren Warbler or Ashy Prinia, a pretty little bird captured by Dipak on camera on a cold winter's day at Okhla Bird Sanctuary (see photo of printout below). I've used larger sized paper and although picking the palette was not easy given the different hues, the most difficult part for me is taking my time over the painting and being patient. That is truly the most difficult part of being a Sunday artist, and hopefully, painting will help me conquer my impatience....although I'm not holding my breath.
