I am realizing how much your medium can affect your inner need for perfection. I am not a perfectionist by nature but I realize that with pen and pencil I have achieved a tight control of the line. This can be a good thing but if I ever want to shake off my need to exercise complete control over my instrument – I turn to watercolor. It is a messy – imperfect tool and being such you have to bring a measure of devil-may-care attitude to the table if you want to create beautiful thing with it.
Also the scan is definately imperfect. Got to find a way to get watercolors in digitally.

I absolutely agree with what you saying. Now it makes me feel that I'm a control freak over my pencils, I should explore watercolours more :D!
