One more entry for today!
I think my painting challenge is having the effect that I was looking for…I’m painting more! Granted, the 30 Day Challenge has only begun, but I feel better all ready!
Squash Blossom is a painting for an eBay art group called ART Squared. The criteria for Art2 is that works of art be in a square format up to 14inches. Every month Art Squared has an art squared theme week and challenges its members to create a work of art around the chosen theme. June’s theme is “Garden Veggies”.
I chose to paint the prolific squash plant. All of a sudden, I am seeing its blossoms everywhere.
The auction will run on eBay for 1 week starting today. All work starts at $4.99 + postage.

I think I will have to take a page from your book to get me back into the swing of painting.
sounds like you are really energized.
This little painting is really lovely.

Thank you, I am really energized and these little paintings are instant gratification. If I had set out to paint 3 large canvases a week, it would have been much more difficult.
Squash Blossom was painted basically in a couple of hours. The ACEOs take about 45-60 minutes.
