30 Paintings in 30 Days: Day 1

Hello folks.  It seems I haven't posted for over a year! Well, that is changing right now :-)

I have joined Leslie Saeta's challenge to paint 30 paintings in 30 days! About 250 painters have joined in this challenge, so it's going to be exciting - and a lot of hard work!

Here's my first challenge painting - no title yet -  my first try in oils with a knife. I usually use a knife in my acrylic abstracts - where everything dries FAST - so this was a new experience. Must plan more in oils.  Looking forward to tomorrow's painting!

  1. This is great, Terry! I'm too chicken to try palette knife painting, but I'll have to add it to my list of things to try! Great start! :)
