Gum tree in full glory with gumnuts, flowers & wattle

Watercolour, Size 28 x 38 … and WC paper acting as blotting paper

I had one of those horrible WC papers, which acted like a sponge...yup it lost all its sizing. Alas any splashes, washes just soaked in, the pigment disappearing leaving in its wake a wishy-washy residue.
Instead of giving up, I persevered out of stubbornness, and miserly attitude of not wasting WC paper..... & admittedly wanted to experiment if that blotting paper could be somehow rescued.
