On my new blog, I'll chronicle attempting to do 20 paintings by March 2007. This should be 2 a week......

30 Paintings By Christmas!

I did it - hurrah!
Here is Capable Carmen. She's 120cm square and is the latest doll for my Paper Dolls series, and the last of my '30 paintings by Christmas' challenge.

This has been so much fun, and it's been fantastic to have an excuse to paint, paint, paint, and be proud of the number of canvasses I'm producing instead of thinking - where am I going to put those, or - I'd better get out there and start selling.

Now I have to make myself another challenge
and try and meet it. The next one is by March.

If you feel like joining in the fun come over to www.Australianartforum.com. and see the link Summer Studio Challenge. It's summer here in Australia and it's starting to feel like it too!

Drum Roll......... #29


Here is #29 - I can't believe it - I think I'm actually going tomake it - 30 paintings by Christmas. whoo hoo!

I've been so busily painting, that I havn't even done my Christmas shopping yet. Oh dear. ...

I usually have that done weeks and weeks ago - with a few left to the last minute to maintain my excitement about the whole thing. I'm starting to feel a knot in my stomach....

Shall have to do something about it. Perhaps I'll go right now and do something about it!

OK - I'm off.

OH - this is one for my exhibition next year I think :) Her name is Calamity.
