Thirty paintings thirty days, day 2.

I’ve decided I’m going to play the game let’s keep pushing this image. So this is today’s version of yesterday’s painting, paring down the details, switching up some color. You can see the original here

Number 2 is a bit cleaner–not nearly as fussy.

Thirty Paintings Thirty Days, Round Two

It’s 30/30 time again, sweetums. A painting a day for the month of September. Some of you may remember when I did this back in January. Instead of painting tho, I taught myself digital art and created the Women in Red series.

You can check those out under Archives in the sidebar to the right. Scroll down to January 2014 and have at it.

This time it’s paint and canvas, albeit small canvases. I’m starting with 8 x 8 inches because I happen to have a box of ’em in the studio. Size will change as I deplete my inventory but my theme–California Impressions, will remain.

Here’s Day # 1.

 With any painting, coming up with the idea is the hardest part. In the interest of growing and stretching creatively, I think I’ll do another variation of this image tomorrow. Abstract it some more. Play with the color and see what happens.

Come back tomorrow and check it out.

As always, love to hear your thoughts in the comments below.
