More than weeds

I’ve been taking part in the 100 days project to repeat a creative act every day for 100 days.
I’ve ended up painting a quick watercolour study at midnight, of a plant that I have come across during the day that would be considered a weed in some places.
The painting is posted on Instagram each day.

So here are my paintings so far and the place where they are painted.
