Heli-painting in the
Bugaboos
Watercolour and crayon

A call for online
entries to an Artist & Selfie Painting Competition included
an ‘Artists en Plein air’ category so I decided to enter a painting based on a
photo of me taken on the heli-painting trip I mentioned in a blog post a coupleof days ago.
There was no requirement to mount, frame with
glass covering, pack and ship the painting, and the entry fee was only USD 37.
That ended up being CAD 50.78, which had risen to CAD 51.06 by the time it was
posted on my Visa bill, but still… not having to ship the thing, usually a big
problem with watercolours, was compelling.
And, there was no requirement to have your face appear in this portrait,
also compelling.
