Back to the Drawing Board

I've just finished a painting and it wasn't until I'd scanned it that I realised I'd not painted the trunk in front of the tree as I'd intended! The trouble with watercolour is that once it's there, it's there. Now my dilemma is do I let it go as it is, or do I start again? Drat! While I get out another piece of paper and start a new painting, let me show you the lovely place I was yesterday. My brother lives close to the white horse area so a visit to  Uffington with him led to a beautiful (but windy!) walk over the stunning hilltops. Right then.. back to the drawing board for me! **UPDATE**UPDATE**UPDATE**UPDATE**UPDATE**UPDATE**UPDATE**UPDATE**UPDATE** Once I started I didn't feel like painting the same one again. I chose a lion instead and the rest followed! (click to see bigger)
