5 Day Painting Challenge: Day 2

ART+WORK+LIVING Facebook Group • 5 Day Painting Challenge • Day 2

12 x 9 inches; Water Soluble Oils on Arches Oil Paper; Time: 30 mins

The goal is to learn to paint quickly and confidently, and to paint every day and establish a new pattern of practice. The goal is NOT to paint a great painting–just to paint.

Got my time down to 30 mins! Starting to get a handle on this quick painting thing.

About Moi

I'm a realist painter of figures, portraits and landscapes. I did a lot of "plein air" events in the past, and still enjoy painting outdoors; I just don't do the events like I used to. And besides, I'd rather be painting people.

My day gig is as a graphic designer, designing web sites, logos, brochures and custom web graphics (see my design site). I work with marketing professionals of all kinds, and as such have learned a few things that I try to share with fine artists.

This blog will have some of that, but mostly it'll be musings about art, my recent work, and goings-on in my art-world.

Thanks for your interest, and taking the time to browse.
