What would you paint if given a canvas and watercolors?

What would you paint if given a canvas and watercolors?
Have you heard about the amazing marksman who was so good he hit 10 out of 10 randomly placed bullseyes on the side of an old barn? Adding to the difficulty, each target was at a different height, scattered along the length of the barn—as though a Target employee undertook a random bit of vandalism on their lunch break. One target was so near the front of the barn that nearly half of it wrapped around to the front of the structure. Less vandalism; more Salvador Dalí inspired genius. But that target also had a bullet hole, dead center. Against an old, decaying rocking chair leans a rusted rifle, thick with cobwebs as though it hasn’t been touched for a decade. Next to the rifle sits an open paint can topped with a brush holding paint that has yet to crust over. This old anecdote is the logical misconception known as the “Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy.” What am I’m trying to say? Just because I have a Minnesota United jersey, and I’d gladly paint circles on a wooden canvas, doesn’t mean I would shoot the broad side of a barn.
I’d paint a landscape with trees
