I have been able to work with pastell colors for the first time in a long time. Curiously, it also made me enjoy water colors much more again! I feel lile I'm making the best pictures when I don't care on the outcome at all, just enjoying the process.
But that's what life always is about, enjoy the walk and journey, amd whatever is happening, we deal with it, learn and experience, and move on. Life simply needs to be lived.
