Day 21 Of Thirty

I started a series of these abstract landscape postcards. I have about a dozen 4 x 6 “scraps” from larger sheets. To be honest, my mojo is taking a siesta. I thought, “How bad can I screw up a simple postcard?” HA! Ha ha ha.

Out of eleven, I think I have three good ones. Not too bad of a batting average. Not great, but not bad. I think. I won’t do the math on that one.

It does mean that I can say I am two days ahead. Woo Whoo! But I will likely keep painting, and hoping for something better. I’ve got three busy days next week and that means my posts will continue to be sporadic.

My first #21 was this abstract collage. Well, it was abstract until I decided to put flowers on it. The start was just me getting every last drop of paint off my brush (from day 20). It was like the energizer bunny, it just kept going, and going, and going.

Have I mentioned I LOVE my new palette? I can even fit my 1 inch Princeton Snap brush in the wells. Well, most of it anyway. This is my first time using the brush, and I really like it. It holds a crisp, thin edge.

Feeling Blessed!

This has various brands of paint. The background is Daniel Smith Indigo and Winsor & Newton Turquoise. The rest are Neocolor II’s.

I have pinned works on my Pinterest event board. I am a couple of days behind I think. Seems to me a lot of artists are not posting links this round. I wish I could leave a comment or connect in some way.

I think this works in any direction. Which one do you like?
