I always felt pressure when plein air painting and people would stop and watched, never thought that they were just happy to be watching and not critiquing my process. I'm going to keep that in mind the next time I'm out and about and want to stop and sketch / paint something. Thanks for putting a different perspective on that for me :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10262483197193836751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-876129775144082.post-30385000377347663702015-07-12T02:06:37.722-05:002015-07-12T02:06:37.722-05:00I am absolutely loving your little mice and althou...I am absolutely loving your little mice and although sometimes it's hard to remember, the sentiment is so true.
