Countdown to 30 Day Art Challenge

The days are counting down until the  30 Paintings in 30 Days Art Challenge with Leslie Saeta.  I have been working on some sketches for paintings for the challenge.  Take a quick gander. 

We'll see how it goes with these sketches.  I am on a food kick for some reason.  Maybe that will be my theme for the challenge.  I do love to watch The Food Network, The Cooking Channel, and PBS food shows, particularly Lidia's Italy.  Maybe some of the food ideas are rubbing off on me.

30 Paintings in 30 Days Art Challenge with Leslie Saeta

I will be participating in a 30 Paintings in 30 DaysArt Challenge with Leslie Saeta.  I will challenge myself to paint 30 paintings in 30 days in January 2014.  Wish me luck!

I am excited about the challenge as I need a motivator such as this to push me to put my paint brush to canvas or watercolor paper, whichever I decide to use. I will post a photo of every painting to my Blog, Facebook and Twitter.  

Please Subscribe to my Blog by email to receive daily updates each time I post one of my paintings during the challenge.   Also Like me on Facebook and Follow me on Twitter. 

Please feel free to share the paintings with your friends, family, and anyone who may like my art.

Stay tuned for more updates as the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Art Challenge start date nears.
