Cardinal attempts-Day 11

I thought with some limited time to paint this week, that I'd punch out a few cardinals for my November Art Fair.  I am not happy with them.  I failed to capture the whimsy that gives my "critters" their fun.  I thought I will post them anyway so that we can all see that every painting is not a success, but we keep painting anyway as it keeps the creative juices flowing.  They won't all be winners.

Shadowing Bob Burridge-Day 9, 30 in 30

One of my favorite artists is Bob Burridge.  I can't get enough of his loose, colorful style of painting.  One of the things he teaches is "Negative painting", where you put in the background first and then paint around your objects to create the final piece.  This is my Bob Burridge inspired forest scene.  His are much better, but he's has much more practice!  lol

Chinese Lanterns-Day 8, 30 in 30

Keeping in mind the upcoming fall season, I painted a vase of Chinese Lanterns in a loose drippy format.  I like how it turned out.  Loose and free painting is definitely my therapy.

Chicken Art! Day 7, 30 Paintings in 30 Days

If you follow my art, you know I love to paint "critters".  I paint cows and pigs and little birdies and I have been getting requests to paint chickens, so I did! I hope you like "Keep on Cluckin".

Day 2-Leanin In Reworked

Leanin In Reworked

You know how it goes.  You keep critiquing a piece and something just isn't right.  Such was the case with "Leanin In", so reworked it tonight.  I did not like the yellow smack dab in the center of the arrangement.  This is better.

Wow, cannot believe it's been 8 months since I posted on my blog.  Nothing like the 30 paintings in 30 days to get me back at it.  I've been busy building my little art business.  You can check out my paintings on my website: https://www.terri-einer.pixels.com

So Sept. 1 marks the first painting in 30.  No way I'll keep up with all of them, but I'll sure give it the old college try!

Here is day 1!
