How to find the time to paint every day - Focus for Five episode 5

I continue using acrylic to block in some more of the buildings in
episode 5 of Focus for Five. By blocking over the first layer of paint,
you can selectively allow parts of the textured, multi-coloured
under-layer to show through e.g. on the people. I find this is a really
efficient way to create interesting effects. The idea behind this
painting of a group of people is to paint or draw for just 5 minutes a
day, hence "Focus for Five", which allows one to be creative even on a
really busy day when life would otherwise get in the way.
