I was singing along with Broadway Soundtracks. I was sipping an iced mocha. I had decided to use traditional watercolor paper instead of my usual Yupo. I got cocky. I started to remove the masking fluid and realized that my efforts were also removing several layers of paper. It was a rookie mistake, and now I need a do-over. In the meantime, here's a painting I managed to finish successfully.
