I don't paint in watercolors, but I have found painting helps me as well. I get in a zone and seem to be able to relax a little better.

I wish I had more time to paint. Every time I start painting, it seems like hours melt away and I can't afford to spend several hours a day painting.

worked with water-based acrylics for a time but found they dried too fast for me so went to oil instead ---painting does help me relax and time just flies

Watercolors is very fun media but very unforgiving.

i agree watercolors are demanding - i use oil because i can work slower with it doesn't dry so fast and i can change it on the canvas
