Argh.

I hate not being able to do something. Pretty much if I'm not good at something right away, I quit. I've been trying to paint w/watercolor for a couple of weeks now--and really, I should know how to paint and draw since I did have at least four studio courses as an undergrad--and I'm just getting frustrated. I need lessons. There is a really good artist in town that gives lessons, but it's something like $130 per semester. That's a really good price, but absolutely impossible given that I was $30 overdrawn before I received my $209 paycheck this morning. Anyway, I start out doing something I like, and end up hating it. Case(s) in point:

Winter Snow

Sailboats on a Lake

I wish I could paint what I want to paint.
