I have to admit, I’m not fond of watercolor pencils. They do help with some things in a painting, but to do a whole painting using them is just not as much fun for me. I miss the wet on wet washes etc. So, I decided to bite the bullet and get set up in the bedroom for painting with my watercolors. I’ve just been missing it too much! I have the drawing mostly done on my first painting in a long time. I should be able to start on it tomorrow. It is a painting of Morning Glories. I have been wanting to paint them for a very long time, and came across some awesome reference photos, so I am thinking this will be a series. As soon as I’m done, I will post a pic of it here. I have to say I’m psyched! I just wish I had more energy so I could do more of this during the day. So much of my time is spent resting. Lately I have been feeling a little more energetic in between naps. This is a surprise since I am weaning down on the hydrocort. But, I have been using the zeolite again for about two weeks and I’m wondering if that is why I have more energy? I know that when I ran out of the zeolite before we moved, my pain levels went way up. Now that I have more and have been using it regularly, I hope it brings the pain down a notch or two! I would love to not have to take so many pain pills. I swear that the amount of pills I take a day adds up to at least one meal! It would be nice to not have to take so many. But, so far they are all helping, so it would be hard to give any of them up at this point. But, one can always have hope for this in the future:)
