Right. Time to announce the giveaway recipients. I had a friend choose 10 Numbers between 1 and 30. And from the comments on those days, I took each name, wrote them on a slip of paper, and put them in a bowl.

From the bowl I choose ten names. I mixed the names up each time I took one out. Several names were drawn multiple times. Thanks you guys for being regular visitors!

In the sense of fairness, I replaced multiples with new names. Better to spread the bookmark wealth around. LOL.

Drum roll please!

Can you believe that someone recorded
this drum roll to fill 10 HOURS of video??

And the Bookmarks go to:

If you can read your name…. just kidding,

Laurelle, Val, Judith, Christine B., Christiane,
Carol E., Sea, Dotty, Martine, and Laurie!

Congratulations!

The bookmarks will be cut from these four paintings. Leave a comment with your first and second choice, and your mailing address. I will delete the address before posting the comment. I already have some of your addresses from the postcard mailing. If it hasn’t changed, you are good to go!

Thanks again everyone for taking the time to follow along with my daily September posts. Your encouragement, and inspiration is very important to me!

September 2017 30 Paintings In 30 Days Review

32 Replies

I had fun with this month’s challenge. Had a rocky start with site crashes, comments going down, and then a road trip interruption. All of that seemed to make the month fly by. I never felt that third week are-we-there-yet dread kick in. Blessings in disguise. Seems to me the start of January’s challenge was rocky too. Maybe I should just expect rocky,

I botched Day 2. I was happy with it. Then the last step. Wreck. It was late, and I needed a replacement to post PDQ. And that is how the first abstract came about. Simple as that. I didn’t plan to do others, but the colors called me.

Most popular days by views: 8, 11, 6, 16, 30, 5, 20, 14, 13, and 12. In that order. Only three of those are on my favorites list. What do I know?

Big thank you to Leslie Saeta for hosting yet another fantastic event! My heartfelt thanks to each of you who took the time to visit me here. Who follow my artistic journey. Our conversations mean the world to me. I am so grateful to have found this community, and I cherish every one of you! For your encouragement, your guidance, your inspiration,

Thank You!

Giveaway alert! I would love to send out 10 bookmarks. Random drawing from your comments. I am going to have a friend choose 10 numbers between 1 and 30. The names from those days will go into a bowl, and the recipients selected from there.

I am going to cut the bookmarks from these paintings:

Day 30 Of 30

Day 30, 6 x 6 acrylic on gessoed 140 lb. Arches cold pressed paper. © 2017 Sheila Delgado

There’s a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall
And the bells in the steeple too
And up in the nursery an absurd little bird
Is popping out to say, “Cuckoo”
Cuckoo, cuckoo
Regretfully they tell us cuckoo, cuckoo
But firmly they compel us
To say, “Goodbye”, to you

So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, good night
I hate to go and leave this pretty sight!

Lucky for us, it isn’t really goodbye. Just goodbye to the 30 Paintings In 30 Days Challenge. Until January that is! Do you think you will join again?

Stay tuned, tomorrow I will share a collage of all 30 paintings, and a collage of my favorites. And I will let you know which were viewer favorites.

But wait! There’s more!

I will be doing a giveaway!

If you get a chance, I have a favor to ask. Follow the links to comment, if you tried to, and were unable. Comments were down on the blog for two days, the 9th and the 10th. I think they were down on the 11th and 12th as well, but there are a few comments on those posts. I would be grateful!
