Wonder - Gentle Caterpillar

Day 4 "Wonder"

Caterpillars usually signify a need for gentle and quiet approaches to our activities and endeavors. They can also signal a surprise or gift about to be offered to us, or that can be beneficial to our future if we take advantage of it. Caterpillars herald a time of good news, new birth, and creative inspiration, signaling a time to get ready to start a new project or initiate a new endeavors. -Andrews, T. (1999)

Ampersand Aquabords - 8 x 8, Aquabord, Deep Cradled, 2

 This is the first time I have painted on Aquabord - and I found it extremely fun. Although....I'm such a horrible direction's reader. You are suppose to wet the board first to remove any air bubbles. I didn't...but I was lucky it turned out okay. I did wet the area I was painting before I layered in the paint, so that's probably why.
