30-in-30 Numbers 20 and 21

I'm back at the challenge! The interruption was due to a hurricane. I'll be continuing the September challenge. But a few friends of mine who were also affected by the hurricane will be restarting our own personal challenges in October. I'm calling it a "reboot".

The first painting is in honor of national peace day while the second is for national New York day.

30-in-30 Painting 3 of 30 Sep 2017

After working on some sketches I decided to make a painting using them as my reference.
This is another watercolor - a little bigger than the others and not on greeting card stock so I guess I'll end up with only 29.

My favorite subject - a horse.



I had enough time in one day to work out and actually do the painting. I wish I could do this more often. Thankfully, I do have a regular job to pay the bills.

30-in-30 Painting 2 of 30 Sep 2017

Another little watercolor done only from my imagination.



The goal of the challenge is to do a painting each day. I'm posting this one a little late. And sometimes I might only be able to post every few days. But each post will include as many paintings as I could complete!

I also got some sketching done.

30-in-30 Challenge September 2017

I have joined the challenge! And here is my first entry. Number 1 of 30.



Normally I work from real life or reference photos. However, this little watercolor is completely from my imagination. It is inspired by watercolor artist, Tom Jones.
