I don’t know who was the first to decorate their envelope for Kat, but now it is part of the fun we all look forward to. Kat shares them on her blog for us all to see.

I reused a padded envelope, and that helped create cracks on the vase when I applied crackle paint. The crackle also gave a shine to the vase, in contrast with the matte paint elsewhere.

Sunday is the last day to sign up for Kat Sloma’s 2016 Liberate Your Art postcard swap. The deadline to actually mail art to Kat is March 12. Join in!

Happy weekend ya’ll!

January Painting Challenge In Review

28 Replies

Jan 2016 30 In 30 Challenge, sheiladelgado.com. Sheila Delgado

The challenge is officially over. I am ready for a break, but I am committed to continuing the daily habit. Be it sketch, or paint, or digital design. Wish me luck!

Out of my 30 pieces for this month, there are only five that I am not thrilled with. Not bad odds. There are a few others I did not like at first, but they have grown on me. Some of that has to do with insights of others. My followers, friends and family. Thank you to my fellow artists for your support and encouragement. I am grateful to you!

I made a collage of my favorites for the month. Which paintings did you like best?

My January favorites.

I will choose from the nine paintings above to create postcards for the upcoming Liberate Your Art exchange. I can never decide on just one design, so there will be at least five.

I love the daily conversations with my artist friends. Miss that the most when the challenge ends. Seeing your art each day is so inspiring and uplifting! Thank you all! For sharing your process, your successes, and your lessons learned when things did not go as hoped. I wish you the very best in the year ahead!
