Painting #16, Pinky, the chicken. This is a quick 30 minute freehand painting. The body shape is really off, but it captures her look pretty well.

Painting #15, mountain landscape. Trying to improve my color and not overwork the paint. The photo color is not true to the original, it looks flatter and muddy on the computer.

Painting #14, landscape with barn. I am finding landscapes to be incredibly difficult. I am very unhappy with this painting and view it as a lesson to learn more about color, depth, painting nature, etc.

30 Paintings in 30 Days

The paintings posted on this blog are part of a challenge I began on 1/1/16 called "30 Paintings in 30 Days." My work is primarily watercolor, and due to time constraints, the posted works were done quickly, in less than an hour. The goal is to practice, learn, and paint on a daily basis. I have long been interested in learning watercolor painting and began by taking several classes in 2015. I enjoy the versatility and challenge of the medium, and am very excited to learn new techniques. I see many flaws in my work; however, the goal is not perfection, but to paint, experiment, have fun, and improve over time. Thank you very much for viewing and I welcome your comments.
Sincerely,
Julie
