Small Accomplishment
100 Day Project Day 37 It’s a 6 inch square canvas, so that means I have managed to fit a hand and foot into a roughly 6x2in space, so my work here is done 🙂 Til the morn, Suzanne 772/800

Mini Complex Pose
100 Day Project ~ Day 35 There are 37 canvases, I think, and momentum is still going. I’m remembering last year when I was doing the daily oil painting and I got bored, that’s not happening this time. Maybe I find bodies more interesting than faces, or maybe the parameters I set were too limiting.…

Framing Fun
I’m thinking about framing a few of my paintings, and that’s a whole new ballgame, so I’m playing with the free bits of this app, and I came up with this. Obviously this is not to scale as these paintings are all 6×6″, but I haven’t figured out all the settings for the app yet.…

Cool Blues
I haven’t posted my sketchbook explorations for a while, so here’s a page I worked on today. The delicious tangle of toes and shadows is definitely not there, yet, but it’s close. Til the morn, Suzanne 768/800

Curled In On Self
Day 32 100 Day Project Current total: 33 6×6″ canvas panels painted to various levels of completion. This is one of the canvases that had a background painted previously, and the figure has been painted today. I pulled out my timer, which I hadn’t been using for a while, and did the figure in just…

More batching
Day I can’t remember but I think it’s 31. The funky perspective pose is one I have done before on a larger scale landscape ratio, so it’s a good challenge trying it again in a 6″ square. Composition is one of the things I am playing with in this project, as well as challenging my…

All Together
Day 29 of 100 Day Project There are 28 mini canvases here, and the other one that I don’t include with the figures, because it doesn’t fit, so I’m still keeping up with the one canvas for every day. That isn’t how they’ve come together, sometimes I sketch on a couple, then work them on…

Keep Going
I’ve lost count of the days with the 100 Day Project, but wherever I am with it, it’s continuing as a daily practice. This one is a basic Zorn palette that needs more work, but the studio got annoyingly hot today, and it’s only March. I unpacked my new gel plate and it turns out…

Stacked
This was a real puzzle to figure out, and I could probably come back for a few tweaks here and there, but everything is just about where it should be. Playing with quinacridone red and viridian today. Viridian is such an interesting colour. By itself I am not a big fan, but its fun to…

More Layers
The texture from the layers of clear gesso is interesting, and it gives a good ground for finishing this one up with Conté pencils. I say finishing this one, but I used workable fixative to fix it, and I get extra points for using fixative to fix a drawing on the same day I did…

Legs
This is another mini canvas for the 100 Day project, using up paint from a colour mixing session where I was mixing with cad red and phthalo green plus black and white. Til the morn, Suzanne 753/800
