The 30 in 30 Challenge

Well here we go again... I've joined the Challenge again. Second time that I've completely lost my mind. Just kidding, it was fun and has been a couple years since I did it ... 
You try to do a painting every day for 30 days. And post it to the blog . Here's the link ...Challenge.  It's Leslie Saeta Fine Art blog. 

So the last time I did it I manage to do it every day.  Hooray for me!!  But this time?  Hmmmm! not so sure.. For one thing I'm having a hard time thinking of subjects to paint. I'm thinking of doing a 'theme' ... one subject and paint it 30 times.. Like I thought of teacups, or coffee cups. Or maybe one theme for a week and then change to another.. and so on.. 
Gotta go right now... but we'll see how this goes.. Fingers crossed.

We Need This

We all need the sunshine right about now.. yes, even in Florida it's been cold. Sorry to the tourists that come here for a week.
I painted this on HP paper, although not my regular paper I wanted to try it again.
Happy Painting to all of you.

Watercolor 2018


I've been away from the easel for a while .. No excuses just the way it's been.. The last few day I did try some flowers and just couldn't get it.  So made a big jump to a portrait which was an improvement over the flowers.
