Day 5 - 30 Paintings in 30 Days

Five days done now.  And five paintings.  One of the best parts of this challenge is at the end, I will have 30 new paintings.  Today, having 5 new paintings seems like a lot. <grin>

Have you had a chance to stop by the blog for the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge?  There are more than 250 artists participating and some amazing talent.  Here's a link if you haven't been over there.... http://lesliesaeta.blogspot.com/

Today's painting is of Sweet Mary, one of the dogs of Laughing Dog Farm owned by Fifi's Friends.  Laughing Dog Farm is a no-kill shelter for dogs.  If you are familiar with my blog, you might remember that I've been working on a series of paintings of the dogs there.  This painting was done on a 6" x 8" gessoed sheet of watercolor paper.  I also was experimenting again with a technique artist, Tim Gagnon, had blogged about.  You can read more about that in this blog post...http://suzun.blogspot.com/2012/11/experimenting-with-line.html




I'm already looking forward to painting tomorrow - although I have yet to figure out what it will be.  We'll just have to wait and see!

Thanks for stopping by...
