Thirty Paintings in 30 Days - Day Eighteen "Make a Wish

"Make A Wish"

40x30" Oil on Canvas

$900

 Wasn't sure where I was going with this one today, but I really had a great time being free to let it take me where the painting wanted to go.....Really loved the freedom of it!

 Check out the ART HAIR - well, honestly if you know me...this is how my hair is almost all the time. Put it up and get it out of the face kind of do!

Got this HUGE 40x30 Canvas for Christmas and I've been waiting until the mood hit me to paint something one it.

Have to work on painting the edges/sides later tonight....maybe after the football game - GO PATS!!
That's my wish - for them to win the super bowl!

Thirty Paintings in 30 Days - Day 27

Original Alcohol Ink on Yupo Paper

8x10 Mat - $125.95

I absolutely love the green...not your typical blue water and sky with inks.

I use a pouring technique for the background then wait for that to dry. The next step is to use a dryer ink, one that has been poured into a paint palette and sits for about 3-4 minutes. Once the ink has thickened a bit the details of the trees and rocks are painted in with a small fine tip paint brush. I go back and layer them letting each section dry first.

Hope you all have a wonderful Saturday - thanks for taking the time to stop by!

Thirty Paintings In 30 Days - Day 2

Birch Trees - Close up 4x4" Alcohol Ink on Tile
$85.00

This one hasn't been glued in yet or had all the sealing done yet, it will take 10 days to complete, but it gives you an idea of what the finished piece will look like. I'll be painting these mostly during my 30 day Challenge - perfect time to give me the push to stock up on my inventory for the Holiday!

Day 8 Resting Mallard Duck

Day 8 of 30 paintings in 30 Days

Rolling along on Day 8 of the second 30 day challenge in 2 months...and it has really become second nature for me to paint daily. The only problem for me is coming up with things to paint, so the PMP (paint my photo) site has been great for me. I found this beautiful Mallard Duck by Nicola B as my reference photo.

Really trying to work on my wet on wet technique since I tend to want to paint every feather I see!

  "Resting Mallard Duck" 

$100

  5x7" Watercolor on 140 Cold Press
Special thanks to Nicola B for the Reference photo.

Craft Fair Next Weekend

Fun with acrylics again today!

Painted some Northern Maine Pine Trees with snow. Opted for a light teal background to pop the trees out and I really love the abstract feel I got. 

Getting ready for the craft fair next weekend...not really sure what to expect since this will be my first one. I know...it's taken me years to sell my work other than online. I'm a shy person by nature and I've really liked hiding behind the computer.

But the time has come for me to get out there and talk to folks one on one! So wish me luck and if you have any experience either as a buyer or seller at a craft fair - I would love to hear your thoughts!

"Here's Looking At You" Swallowtail Catapillar 30 In 30 Day 27

 Have you ever seen such a thing? 

What am I looking at  you may say? 

Looks like it's staring right back at you doesn't it? That's not a eye though....it's actually the back end of a Swallowtail caterpillar! 

 

 "Here's Looking At You"

8x10 Framed - $100

A photograph friend took a funny little picture this summer of a swallowtail caterpillar, not knowing what it was at the time. She was showing me her photos on Monday and this one jumped right out! It was one of the funniest little insect/bug/creatures I have ever seen!

It may be a strange choice of subject matter for a watercolor - but he just "cracked" me up. I mean really....that's an eye! Bet the birds think twice with this kind of back end!

Special thanks to Michele Wood for the photo reference.

"Juicy Fruit" 30 in 30 Day 9 - By Kellie Chasse

 "Juicy Fruit"

It's football season and all I want to eat is football food! Like delicious buffalo chicken dip, Mexican tacos, wings, omg....the list goes on and on....

Here's me trying to squeeze in a few healthy foods too. They had these juicy green grapes on sale at Hannafords this week, and with NO seeds. Let's see if I'm allergic to them? If I am, I may have to stick to the football food.

Hope you enjoy Day 9's painting of 30 in 30!

Here's a peak at my Progress Steps
