Beginning painting

I am a professional illustrator. You would think after a few years of doing this, I would have caught on by now that if I'm painting with watercolors from the right to the left, I will inevitably smear by hand in the fresh paint while painting the left side. I think I have told myself 10 times today to paint left to right. It seems basic enough. Apparently, I am just a beginner still and I can't seem to catch on to this basic concept. Someday...

You should see my ambulance paperwork! It's even worse because I hold the pen so close to the tip.

Last week I managed to lean my elbow directly onto my pens blotting sheet. It was TERRIBLE.
