I've decided to get into the "daily painting" movement and create at least a painting a day, and post them as I go (on this blog and on my website). So it won't look like I have too much work in the beginning, but as I go, it will grow!
Here is the first daily painting :) It is on a 6x6 inch panel (Masonite panel I've cut and gessoed). I really love crystal animals. Many know the ones that Swarovski makes, and these are a couple of baby duck crystals that I found.
This was a fun exercise! I am trying to give myself a time limit to stop me from fussing with too much detail (as I tend to do) and try to make more finishing marks with as few strokes as possible. For my first attempt, I was pleased with the result, but I know there's a lot of room for improvement (which is also encouraging!).
And remember...
"Paint as you like and die happy." -Henry Miller
