Relearning Watercolour Painting

I have just started taking classes in watercolour painting through Elder College. The instructor is excellent and very encouraging of everyone’s efforts. My first attempts had been decades ago, and I had a brief later try a few years ago.

Without knowing whether or not they would work, I brought my old paints to the class and much to my surprise they were okay. Not great, but good enough for now. I am enjoying the way water interacts with the paint to create happy accidents. So here, with very tentative brushstrokes and aged equipment, are my first efforts.
