Day 7 - Blue Flame!

Okay, I finished my painting for the day before the sun went down, but I'm still not very happy with the photo.  There is all sorts of purples going in to my dark blues and turquoises in some of the lightest blues.  This is why I am a painter and not a photographer --urrrggghhh!

Day 6 - Painting

Here is Day 6 Painting. The problem with finishing after dark is getting a decent photo.
My camera (or the operator) is not the best.  The dark greens and blues in the bottom come out black in the photo. Oh well, until tomorrow.

Day 4 of 30 Paintings

Whoo Hoo! I finished my painting for the day!

14x36 oil on canvas - palette knife

I have been trying to keep the energy in my paintings and not over work and over explain, so today I worked with oil and palette knife to see what I could make of it.

Until tomorrow - Dawn

Painting for Day 3

"Sunshine" 12x12 oil on canvas
After a couple of disasters in the studio, I was finally able to pull this one out.
Some days you soar with angels and others... not so much.
Oh, well I look forward to seeing what happens tomorrow. At least now I can work in the studio for the rest of the day and I don't have to finish anything! 

See you tomorrow, Dawn

Day 2 of 30 paintings in 30 Day

Alright, here is my painting for day 2.
"Lilies and Coy" 5x7


The color is a little off on this and I lack the photos shop skills to correct it.
That always drives me nuts. Check out all the artists work at http://www.lesliesaeta.blogspot.com/

I just did a small one today. As you can see in the photo below, my studio is
a wreak with half finished paintings! 
 
See you tomorrow, 
Dawn

Day 1, 30 paintings in 30 days

Okay, here is the first one off the easel for the 30 Day Challenge.
" The Chain that Holds Me" 12x12 acrylic and paste - Sold

I have really set my intention yet for the challenge, but at least I've started and I'll have to come up with a focus soon.
Yes, I know I should have already done that!

See you tomorrow, Dawn
