Description Now THIS is a complete departure for me.  Harassed and "encouraged" by CapitaPerdu , I have, after 60+ years finally taken up brush and paint and followed instructions to create a watercolor landscape.

Does this compare with the original reference image in the pamphlet?  Let's say one can see the resemblance.  It's a first step.

Does it have mistakes?  By the dozen!!

Did I learn something?  DEFINITELY - watercolors are not scary anymore!

Maybe You Won’t Believe, Felix, But I’ll Start Saying not about Colors, but about Your Shapes...! And Your Shapes are Deeply Lovable: I really DoLove that Tree on the Left, and the Profile of Mountains in the Back, and the Fluyd Line of the Path, and Bushes and Trees in the Middle, and all those yellow Rings hosting an Orange Core of the Flowers...!! 
Let FLOW, Felix, Let FLOW... Here You Are...!!

You're welcome and I'll stay tuned for the portrayal of the humanoids.

You're a universal genius, like Leonardo da Vinci.
You are not only a virtuoso of digital art, but also a brilliant painter.

Thank you.  I wouldn't go THAT far!  

Unfortunately, I dabble in a lot of things, but master none.  Which means I'm dangerous.

Of course, there is one goal - to photograph you in person!

Why are you making yourself smaller than you are? Believe in yourself!
For me you are a brilliant artist!
One should set oneself goals, but these should not be confused with dreams.

Remember - if you don't dream, what point is there to set a goal?

My ultimate dream is to be better than I think I can be, therefore my goal is to improve.

You're absolutely right.
When striving for improvement do not forget your spiritual freedom!
