Vignettes & Vile Verses Veritable par Graham Clarke "Joie de Vivre lies betwen Rue de Wakening and Rue Matisme" (Gaston Duplonk, 1886 - ) WATER INTO WINE AND VICE VERSA The absent-minded artist's life is not without its hazards and drinking one's paint water is certainly one of them. It is most likely to happen when deeply absorbed in one's task but have a drink on hand for fortification, perhaps a mug of coffee or cocoa or in this artist's case, possibly a glass of wine. Exactly how many times I plonked my No. 4 Winsor and Newton genuine Kolinsky sable into the glass of modest Argentine Malbec, I have no idea, but the resulting 'aquarelle' (as the French insist on calling watercolours) seemed to exude a pleasing warmth. I only realised what I had been doing when upon completion, to my astonishment the water pot still contained pure clear water. In a moment of uncharacteristic restraint I did not quaff the Malbec as it had turned an interesting shade of Khaki.

WATER INTO WINE AND VICE VERSA
The absent-minded artist's life is not without its hazards and drinking one's paint water is certainly one of them. It is most likely to happen when deeply absorbed in one's task but have a drink on hand for fortification, perhaps a mug of coffee or cocoa or in this artist's case, possibly a glass of wine.
