4 x 5 watercolor on 140 lb. cold press paper.

A lot of nuthin’ much going on here today. I have painted a day ahead for most of this challenge. I thought yesterdays painting was done and posted, but it wasn’t. Duh.

Today has been a Donna Summer day. Been working hard for the money. I am sharing most of the rejects from today. These are the best of the worst.

Guess I should cut myself some slack. I went to the drive in last night, double feature. Then I came home and worked for a couple of hours. We saw Lone Survivor.

God Bless our American servicemen and women.

Lack of sleep is obviously detrimental to my creativity. Still, I think each of these has something that is redeemable. And I had fun, so not a total loss. All practice is good practice!

Enjoy!

Loose was about three minutes back from where I stopped painting. Next stop. Overworked.

Still for all that is wrong with this pear, I really like it. It is far from perfect. I love aged, chipped and peeling, left out in the rain and rusted shut.

This looks like it has lived a long life. The art, not the real pear. Although, maybe that did too now that I think about it. Looks like it was left on a desk, and someone spilled some Coke on it. They tried to wipe it up, but duh, it is watercolor. So the paint smeared into a muddy mess.

Happy Day 14 to all the artists still working away in Leslie’s Challenge! Happy Tuesday to everyone – Thanks for stopping by!
