  • Silence and Sounds

    Silence and Sounds

    Today’s 100 Day Project 6×6″ acrylic on canvas. I am happy to report that the stench and pollution from the recycling site fire, which I believe is still smoking, has not been reaching us today, so I am headache free with normal eyes. This meant I could do the project I had been wanting to…

  • Colour Joy

    Colour Joy

    Today’s share is from today’s 100 Day Project. I started out with a ground using Quinacridone Nickel Azo Gold, which is a Golden paint that was discontinued a wee while back, leaving many folk scrambling to get hold of some before all the stock went. I have a wee stash, but what’s the point of…

  • Sensory Overload

    Sensory Overload

    Today has been a LOT. I am struggling with the smell and my allergies are going mad with the stench still blanketing us from the rubbish facility that is miles away. I feel so bad for the people living close to the place because if it’s affecting me this much, they must be in absolute…

  • Disrupted Day

    Disrupted Day

    I had visitors today, and we are still experiencing the stench of the ongoing fire at a plastic recycling facility some twelve miles away. It’s very unpleasant, and there’s not much we can do but hope for a big storm to clear the air. I painted a couple of wee canvases, and I am thinking…

  • Fun and Finishing

    Fun and Finishing

    Fun with grunge on the gel plates today, because I don’t already have enough collage fodder 😀 For the 100 Day Project I worked on this canvas, which only had a basic sketch on it previously. I was using leftover paint from yesterday’s double canvas session, and having a bit of fun with value versus…

  • Hot Mix

    Hot Mix

    Today’s 6×6″ canvas utilised a palette of delicious colours resulting from some colour experiments. I have made a bunch of notes of ways to push this combination further. There are only three colours in this mix plus white. Til the morn, Suzanne 791/800

  • Fifty Paintings

    Fifty Paintings

    It’s Day 50 of the 100 Day Project and I have a pile of fifty paintings in various stages of completion. Technically there are fifty-one paintings, but Andrew has been relegated from the recaps because he’s a disgusting specimen that doesn’t deserve too much attention. There are now so many I can’t fit them in…

  • Warming the cool

    Warming the cool

    Today’s 100 Day Project session. I pulled this wip from the shelf and started tidying it up a bit. I’m using acrylics for these, but I might go in with oils on this one for the finishing layers, just to see how I like it. I warmed the colours up a bit, but I might…

  • Forty Two of Forty Four of One Hundred

    Forty Two of Forty Four of One Hundred

    Day 42 and here are 42 of the 44 mini canvases I have painted so far. I’m definitely not running on empty as I think I was by this stage last year, so that’s telling me something. I’m happy with the way these look as a collection, even though some are very clearly unfinished. This…
