If you want to make time fly, do a daily challenge. Haha. It feels like we should be starting May or June. As if months have passed, instead of just one. So much work has been done. I have to admit, I am pretty stoked that I completed 30 days. Hand in the air for a high five. Haha. I wasn’t sure I’d be up to it. And truth be told, I napped a lot. I procrastinated often. The muse was napping too I think.

Tomorrow I will share my collage of the 30 pieces, and also my favorites with you. Later this week I will share a small sample of the works created by the artists in the group. You won’t want to miss it!

If people would just look at the paintings,
I don’t think they would have any trouble enjoying them.
It’s like looking at a bed of flowers,
you don’t tear your hair out over what it means.
Jackson Pollock

    This is wonderful. It is still graphic, but those flowers look like you can pick them up and they will have petals and an intoxicating scent. I think that time away from painting has really progressed your art.

    What a finale! A marvelous composition of colors, shapes, and joy! You are truly amazing, Sheila. You had such challenging months leading up to this “challenge,” that it is a wonder you were able to produce and create such beauty for 30 days straight. You can take a rest, but make it short. You are on a tremendously interesting creative roll. Your past endeavours are coming to fruition in confident, beautiful works. I’m so very happy that I will be here along with you. Biggest hug!!
