Watercolor painting is a beautiful dance between inspiration and technique, but sometimes, ideas can challenge us. I’ve found that expectations regularly overshadow the process. However, amidst these struggles, my 4-year-old son’s innocent words breathe magic into my heart. “Mom, you did it so beautifully today,” he says, and in those moments, my worries fade away, replaced by a heartwarming smile. The purest appreciation comes from the little ones, reminding us that the joy of art lies not in perfection but in the love we infuse into each stroke.
