Work in progress, acrylic on 12 x 12 gallery wrapped canvas.
This will have scripture and I will also add some details or textures. I painted using my fingers, mixing some of the colors directly on the canvas.
I started with a dark section, seen below. Thinking I would have lighter details there.
W.I.P. #1
After looking at it, I changed my mind, and reworked that area. Tomorrow I will add to this, and share the results with you.
My site has been down for almost two weeks. The main issue has been resolved, but there may still be a few hiccups in the next few days. (Quick updates that may take the site down for five or ten minutes at a time.) I am guessing my silence wasn’t noticed. but if you did try to reach my site, and couldn’t – I apologize.
I have signed up for Leslie Saeta’s January challenge. I am still trying to think of a theme, and decide on a medium. I will be in the middle of a move, next month, so that is a major factor. I may have to pack some supplies early.
Hope your holiday preparations are going smoothly!
Happy, creative week to you!

I DID notice you were gone…….I tried to look you up. OMG, Sheila, this is gorgeous! I am looking forward to the scripture you’ll be adding. I’m so glad you’re going to be in the 30 in 30. But moving, too?! Just do as many as you can, and I’ll be looking for you!
That is so nice to hear Laurie 🙂 Thanks! I think I am going to have to move my blog soon, but that will not happen for a few months at least. I am so glad you will be doing the challenge as well. Your daily paintings are such a joy! See you there!
Beautiful colors, Sheila! I too signed up for the 30 in 30, and I am in awe that you are attempting it while moving! wow.
Oh I am so glad Rachel! I know… (thanks) trying not to think about it much yet. LOL
It does have a Monet quality about it. Very pretty.
Thank you Lana 🙂
Really great, I really like the top one you have there. Well done 🙂
Hi Vivayne! Thank you 🙂 Hope all is well with you – happy creating 🙂
Sheila, as you know from my contacting you a number of days ago, I missed your online presence and missed seeing your art. Lovely to wake up to your enlivening canvas this morning, with its bright colors and softnesses. Just what I needed this morning : ) You’re moving house? Yikes! That’s a big undertaking to combine with the 30-in-30! Bon voyage in both ventures! Dotty
So glad you like it Dotty, thank you. And thank you so much for you kind words 🙂 Yes, Yikes is the word! Would have planned it differently if I could. I just have to take a deep breath and… carry on! Hope to see you in the challenge!
Looking good Sheila!!! 🙂
Thank you Cindy 🙂
Hi Sheila – I did miss you and it is good to have the reason you weren’t posting explained. I really like the colors in this piece. I am still debating about joining the 30 paintings challenge but I will look forward to seeing what you come up with – take care!
So nice to hear, thank you Val 🙂 I hope very much that you will be able to take part, I love seeing your work 🙂 But I know it is a major time commitment. (Fingers crossed.) Either way, I look forward to hearing what you think about my progress (or lack of it).
Lovely Sheila! Very Monet
WOW, thank you Barbara-Jean!
