Since I started Weight Watchers about six weeks ago, my mantra has been that I am a turtle. Because of my age and other factors, my weight loss will be slow. I won't get discouraged and give up with small losses, extremely slow losses, plateaus or even gains. SLOW AND STEADY WINS THE RACE! I wanted a drawing of a turtle that I'd see often to remind myself to persevere.
This is done in oils - a Sharpie used first to do the wording and outlines. Then filled in with transparent colors and then opaque colors - with plenty of transparent colors showing through. It's a quick and easy painting - a fun piece.
