Zorn Palette Play
Day 17 of my 100 Day Project. Today I focused on how I was putting paint down, and trying to be more choosy to avoid ending up with thick paint that I find harder to resolve or correct. I’m trying different things with this project, different brushes, different colour palettes, and so on, and making…

Subtle Underpainting
I had a very productive and varied day in the studio today, and feel very accomplished. Yay. I started with my habit-in-development, a timed twenty minute sketch. It wasn’t particularly good, but the sketchbook is filling up. Next up I prepped seven 6×8″ sheets ready to begin the 100 Day Challenge tomorrow. I decided having…

100 Days! Done!
100 Day Project Day 100 I feel like I have accomplished something, but pinning down exactly what that is is a little more difficult. In terms of numbers, I have definitely made art every day for 100 Days, and posted a blog every day for 100 Days, but those are just numbers, and the things…

Page After Page
100 Day Project Day 99 My hands are covered in paint and various mediums, and there are all sorts of art supplies spread out on every available surface, and my paint water jars are disgusting, and I have been working in my sketchbooks for around four hours, maybe more. I did have half an hour…

No Time Still Arted
100 Day Project Day 98 A busy day with visitors today, so not much time for art. This is especially challenging when it’s day 98, so to break the streak now would be disappointing. With around twenty minutes for an art session, I grabbed one of my 6×8 watercolour blocks and grabbed supplies at random…

Filling Pages
100 Day Project Day 97 Continuing the Sketchbook Project of finishing my current A5 spiralbound sketchbook the same day I finish the 100 Day Project, I had the target of filling four pages today, and what do I do? Yes, I start flinging wet materials including modelling paste at the first spread, which means waiting…

Operation Sketchbook
100 Day Project Day 96 I’m still thinking that it would be affa fine to finish one of my sketchbooks alongside completing the 100 Day Project, so I’ve put little page markers in the book to mark out how many pages I need to fill each day to get it done. It’s basically two spreads,…

Things Can Only Get Better
100 Day Project Day 95 I confess I relished the rain as it pished doon on Rishi as he stood at the lectern in Dowing Street trying to big up his shite party while announcing the worst kept secret of the day, that a General Election is called for July 4th. Someone was at the…

From Dust
100 Day Project Day 94 I had this idea that I was going to spend the last ten days of the 100 Day Project focussing on filling the last portion of the sketchbook I have mostly been working in. Almost as soon as I decided that was what I was going to focus on, I…

One Man and His Beard
100 Day Project Day 93 Mister Beard is finished. There’s a lot of things I could pick apart, but on the whole I am happy with this. I do not play with my watercolours often enough, so this was good practise. I’m happy with his shiny bald head 😀 Til the morn, Suzanne

Big Bear Big Brush
100 Day Project Day 92 I really wanted to nail this today, but I’m stopping to let the paper rest before going in to fix the eye, and finishing up. It’s hilarious to me that I am avoiding like the plague another class piece because it’s watercolour, and yet I’ve dived in with this one…
