  It’s been quite some time since I did a watercolor painting and if I don’t do watercolors for long, I tend to lose whatever confidence I gained doing it. Its a vicious cycle that I tend to get sucked into. After doing two acrylic paintings (because the canvases had been lying around for long), I…
