For the past twelve years I've lived with a chronic illness.  I have lupus, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue.  So I draw or paint when I'm feeling OK.  I'm always looking for a way to create when I can't get out of bed.  My preferred medium is watercolors, but becomes a little tricky trying to paint  sitting up in bed and not spilling water all over the bed.  I do use watercolor pencils and neo-crayons using a Aqua-flow brush--it's not a perfect solution, but at least it allows me to be creative.
So today is one of those stay in bed days...I wanted to go for an impressionistic painting, using only 2 complimentary colors...yellow and purple.  I used my Neo-crayons on 140 lb watercolor paper. Size 8.5 x 11.
