Stuff happens!

So as I mentioned in the previous post,we were away for a nice camping weekend. We had a bit of a mishap. As we were leaving to come home our camper wheels fell in a sinkhole at the campground.😞 Long story short, after a 7 hour wait for heavy duty tow truck we were able to be on our way again. Thankfully no damage to camper or truck when all said and done.❤️ So now I plan on painting a few pictures to get caught up. Glad it all worked out in the end.

Very disturbing view
Sunk both tires
Truck and camper making contact
Our heroes lifted back of camper and moved it off the track of sink hole. While still hitched to truck, they were amazing! Campground paid for rescue.

My 30 paintings in 30 days!

This I must say was an eye opener, when we say we don’t have enough time.  It is So not true ,I have proved to myself that I can find the time.  I was really entrenched in this process this month, and had a fun time doing it.   So now I need to keep this momentum going, painting away.

These are my 30 , and pleased overall.   Thanks for taking a look 🙂picmonkey-image

Hey there, day 22  8 days to go before this challenge is done.  WOW amazed I’m keeping up.  This little painting is about 2 inches by 4 inches done on a piece of ripped watercolor paper.   So very rough edges 300 pound cold pressed paper.  The heavier the paper the more water it can take.

Quick little wet in wet 2 x 5 inch painting done on arches post card.  It was a paint and run kind of day.   I think for fun for next few I will take a picture of the inspiration and possibly works in progress pictures. Its fun to see the progression I think.  This little painting really just went on as you see it.  Not to many layers.

I honestly am shocked at myself to continue with this challenge.  What I have been doing is grabbing a piece of watercolor paper,  and have several pictures to choose from.  They are quick wet on wet,  at times I have two going just to give the first painting a rest so it dry’s a little bit.  These are taking no more than 20 min to 45 min  to finish.  Pretty soon I will start a more ambitious painting to work over a period of time. While still doing these quick  paintings.
