Can't win 'em all

I went for a walk the other day, about two miles.  It was a lovely day.  I paused to paint as I walked through Snail Lake Park.  There was not much of a view, but that was fine because I wanted to focus on something close up.  I closed up the paper block before it was dry and the tip of the one leaf is now messed up.  

I find my attention span is getting shorter.  I bought a smaller block of watercolor paper.  Even on the 7x10 paper I stopped before it felt done.  I think I just want to start it a different way.
