Day Ten of the 30 paintings in 30 days with Leslie Saeta.  I love painting martinis almost as much as drinking them!  Time to put the vodka away and get busy!!  I am so many paintings behind on the 30 in 30.  This is actually the sixth painting for me~

Martini, Stirred XI was painted using professional artist grade acrylic paint on a museum quality gallery wrapped canvas with painted sides to allow for display without a frame. Painting was finished with a light coat of varnish.

I have no clue what to paint for tomorrow~

Day Four of the 30 paintings in 30 days with Leslie Saeta.  This is my all time favorite cherry painting.  I love how it turned out!   The soft-fuzzy look is intentional, kind of, --I really don't know how I did it---but I hope I can do it again!

January 2016!! Thirty Paintings in Thirty Days is Back!!


Tar Heel Martini III
Acrylic Paint on Gallery Wrapped Canvas
8" x 10"
Sold

Happy New Year!  This is going to be a fabulous year! ~ best year ever!!

Yes, I am going to do the 30 paintings in 30 days with Leslie Saeta.  No I have not learned my lesson, I know I never get the 30 completed~ but I am determined to do better than the previous challenges.  

The first painting is Tar Heel Martini III.  I am a born and bred die hard Texan....but, I am now a Tar Heel mom, and one day will I probably be a Tar Heel Grandma.  My daughter and her husband decided to stay in Chapel Hill after they graduated and raise their family.  Who knows, I might end up there one day myself.

Enjoy Day One of the challenge, and I will see you back here tomorrow.

Thank you for stopping by,
