Gouache and AMNH

Today I went back to the Museum of Natural History for the first time since covid lockdown.

I painted some birds.

Lots of people said really nice things to me.

One guy came over and was just fascinated, he said he wanted to do that, too.

I told him he should.

Especially at the museum, I get children visitors, which is cool because they decide they want to paint, too. Even more unexpected is that parents are respectful. They tell their kids not to get too close, to give me space.

I love that AMNH is so friendly to painters.

I guess it's really ok when 2 security guards walk by and say how nice the painting is.

I did get white paint on the floor but I cleaned it up.
