 watercolor, 11 x 14 inches
I've become obsessed with this house. Don't know anything about who lived there, but I've painted it at least a dozen times in the last two weeks. 
The first watercolor of this house was satisfying, and possibly would have been enough. 
Atypically, I was very happy with the result, using a limited palette.  
As I packed up, evidently the painting remained behind; I never saw it again.  Maybe it was left it on top of the car as I drove off.   When I realized it was  missing,  back I went, driving all over the neighborhood, but to no avail. 
Like the fish that got away, in my mind's eye, the painting just kept getting better and better.
Since then, I keep trying to reach that bar again.  Sooner or later, if the house doesn't get knocked down first, I'll stop, hopefully after a successful painting experience.
