[Aquanet] Clarification- Painting a day.

[Louise & Rich]

Thanks Pat for the clarification.  I still think there must be a way to put 
this together.  Had an idea, but not sure it is workable.  I don't know 
anything about blogs, but wondering if there is a way for us to have a blog? 
Or should we just put a separate email list together where we could write, 
send photos to one another of our daily and/or weekly "wee" paintings, or 
just report in that we had done it.  This is starting to sound like a weight 
watchers or AA meeting where we have to report in or weigh in!!!!  I do 
really feel that a support group is always wonderful in getting you 
jump-started into painting again.
Let's chat and see if we can put something fairly simple together for us 
"dried-up" watercolorists.
