June 25th

Ha I’ve given up trying to post and paint everyday . So instead of 30 paintings it might be 25? The fact that I have begun creating again I’m totally pleased with. I’m having nerve issues in my left hand as well. So trying to give it a rest. Even so I painted this project from Sara cray instruction vol 1. Very pleased with it. Lots of fun,

Measures 10×14 wet on wet with ink liner work,splatter of 3 colors to finish up.

Ok back on track June 21 (21 of 30 paintings)

So this was just playing with color washes. I know not very artsy, but it’s just what I needed after the last two postings. Lots of painting today for me. So just very light washes from my pallet. Just drew out circles overlapping here and there. Glazed over circle previously painted and dried just to see. Could I keep the was even? How did the glaze on top change the color? Just fun and simple idea. Have a great first day of summer!

Measures approx 4 inches x 16 inches
My set up today , beautiful relaxing day to sit and paint away.

June 15 (15 of 30 paintings)

So today I just had a hankering to play with color. It actually turned into working on liner work.

Then one thing lead to another and now cats are watching fish under water and fish have eyelashes. It is quite goofy but good practice. I did do some glaze washes over dried color washes. Used a lot of saturated color as well.

The focus of this painting was mixing various blue greens for each leaf. Good exercise.
