Day 3 -30 paintings in 30 days challenge -Kiss Me

I hope you are all enjoying a nice long week-end!
Here is an example of wildlife that has found their home in our backyard. For those who don't know, my husband is a master gardener and has created a beautiful paradise in the city. We have a koi pond that he built and he loves it when the wildlife find their home here. Below was one such critter!

Day #21- 30 paintings in 30 days challenge

When it's cold like this, I like to think about warmer days! Like spring!

So, in case you are needing to think spring...or even maybe Mothers Day, here's some inspiration!

(I'm humming a song, can you guess what it is?)

Day # 18 - 30 paintings in 30 days challenge.

It's the 3rd week. Yahoo! It's been such an amazing journey
doing this consistently for 18 days!I have been learning so much
doing this challenge. Most especially that I am having fun again. These last couple
of years have been a roller coaster ride of events that have kept many tops spinning. 

But THIS year, my resolution was to get back to painting and have FUN!
It's working!!! Here is a reflection of one of my hobbies I enjoy
(not so much this month as my focus is on accomplishing this feat.)

Here is a painting I actually did not too long ago!  I have a few "wild cards" ...paintings I already had finished in the last month or so but never posted. I needed a night off tonight. This one is also available at auction, but this one comes FRAMED!

Day #5- 30 paintings in 30 days challenge

This was a fun piece because of the blue Ball Mason jar! I just loved capturing the light going through it and the spectrum of color as a result.

Day #1 - 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I am starting a challenge for January. It's called 30 in 30.

Basically it's to paint 30 paintings in 30 days. Leslie Saeta, an artist in California, hosts this artist challenge twice a year. I've signed up twice in the last few years and never followed through. SO, this year I will do my best to do as MANY small paintings as I can...and hope to meet the goal of 30. Here's keeping my fingers crossed that I can do it! Have fun putting a bid on the ones you like.
