Voyager

My concentration span isn't completely with it at the moment for painting intricate pictures, so instead I've tried to paint something simple.
Funnily enough, even simple pictures require a deal of concentration to make them look simple! Have you ever found that?

Nonetheless, I love to paint, and even if keeping on top of the ankle rehab exercises takes a lot of time ( and it does) I still find myself wanting to paint. So I've made time to wet the brushes and produce a relatively simple painting.
Completely from my imagination and no drawing.

The painting that kept my brushes wet is this, and I call it Voyager
