A Painting a Week
With the new year coming and the time for new beginnings I figured it will be a good a time as any to paint as much as I can.
Now, with the family and everything else that needs to be done in daily life I will not be attempting "A Painting a Day" but "A Painting a Week".
I’ll post the finished paintings on Sundays and start back at it on Monday. Fifty two paintings doesn’t sounds like much to be completed in on year, but we will see if I can keep to the schedule.
Here we go…………………………

“Light Breeze” | Another Landscape
Worked on this for no more than two days. I was happy with it initially but as it progressed everything seemed to change. I’ll chalk it up to experience and move onto my next painting.
I guess you have to produce some duds here and there.
‘Solace” - Landscape WIP
This is my newest painting. 12×12" hardboard coated with a mix of gesso and 4F pumice.
Always wanted to paint water and overall it is not complicated at all. The more I paint, the more I see the world as I would paint it, not how it exists. Very odd.
Just a bit more work on this one, then it goes in as a submission for another juroured show.
The final version can now be seen in my gallery.
