Before we begin

There's a process to everything and this here is before when I begin with watercolours.
Something of a mise en place with colours and all the paraphernalia.
Apart from watercolours, there's to be two separate containers for water, cotton cloth for wiping brushes, a palette for mixing colours, a sheet for testing colours, tissue for soaking excess water and brushes to paint.
Lemon water in the mug is a part of the process too, as a way of hydration during the long hours
