30 Paintings in 30 Days

I accepted Leslie Saeta's challenge to paint 30 paintings in 30 days. I learned a lot more than I thought I would. It was certainly a challenge! The photo collage did not quite hold all of them, but they are all on this blog. Most are for sale, but some are privately owned. Looking at them as a collection is eye opening. I love bright colors, nautical anything, & flowers.

Spoonful of Sugar

A friend of mine posted a picture of her new puppy. I knew I just had to paint him from the moment I saw him. He is a spoonful of sugar! Painted with MaimeriBlu watercolors on watercolor paper.

Private Collection

Whirlpool

Just doodling with a paint brush and some FW acrylic inks. Guess the influence of the ocean is ever present with me. This acrylic ink painting is on 300# paper and is size 5 x 7.

Palm Grove

 If emotions came in colors, you could see how it feels to view these palms from my hammock. This is a 5 x 7 in FW acrylic inks on 300# paper.

Breaking

If I had learned to surf first, I might not have learned to do anything else! It looks like it would be addictive. This is a 5 x 7 FW acrylic ink on 300# paper.

Aptly Spoken

A word aptly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver. Proverbs 25:11  Sometimes words are images and images are words to me. This is an image I think about often and try to keep my tongue till the right time. This is FW acrylic inks on black paper size 5 x 7.

Shimmering

Daler-Rowney art company makes a set of acrylic inks called Shimmering red, green, gold, and blue. They are all but invisible on white paper, but show off on black paper. This leaf is painted with the shimmering inks on 140# black paper. It is a 5 x 7.
