I just finished a painting that was supposed to be one thing then turned out to be another!  I was "supposed" to paint the Himalayas with prayer flags blowing in the wind in the background and then...BAM...something TOTALLY different happened...but, that's the art procedure for you!  I had a lot of fun working with a friend in Bali, a fabulous photographer that took a dip in his pool as lotus flowers were flung in, capturing the flowing petals and centers...then I came upon some old prayer flags here in Nepal that I integrated into the background after painting one I didn't like, and with watercolours, you can't really "fix" things.  The painting is one of memories for me and fun life happening right here and now, new creations and the ability to laugh at loud at my own misconceptions...of how things should and need to be (since I'm in Nepal and no where near an ocean OR lotus flowers) vs allowing things to just develop in time naturally!  The path ahead is not set in stone...
