Strugglin'? Yeah.

   I'm doing my best to keep making progress every day. I still don't have all my art supplies in my new studio, and that really drags me down. But, that's not what this is about. I recently finished my daily painting challenge. A watercolor painting a day for a year (actually 369 days) and an acrylic painting a day for a year (actually 368 days). There was some overlap in the two challenges. I actually did at least one painting a day for 400 days. Didn't miss once. I did have a backup plan though. I did two extra of each medium. Just in case. I used one set when I had the flu (Type A AND Type B. Go big or go home!). I felt horrible and it was all I could do to post a two paintings, much less paint them. Looking back, I would like to see what the results would have looked like, considering my fevered brain had no firm grasp on your reality. The other two sat in my bedroom, ready to jump in if they were needed. There were a few days where I came in from an eleven hour waiting shift and though "hell, I don't have it in me", but I persevered and painted anyway. So, bottom blogger line, I'm gonna show those never before seen paintings. Right here. Right now. You're all mighty lucky :)


I don't even have names for them. Yet. I'll post them on my social media in the next day or so and I'll come up with something then. Unless you have some ideas.

How Did I Do It?

 I bought my first bottle of this about six months ago. I'm not sure how I ever got by without it. It's like going from stone tools and bear skins to computers and the internet.

What A Bargain

I found these Rapidograph pens at a thrift store yesterday. For only $3.50. 😁
