Daily Painting

These small works are part of an endeavor to create a painting a day. When my friend Treva, first told me of the Painting-A-Day movement, I must admit that I was a bit skeptical. She persisted, suggesting that I look at the work of Carol Marine. Being duly impressed, I started looking further into it and came across Michael Naples. What impressed me was not merely their ability to consistently create a work of art each day but more at the quality of work. Amazing

What put me over the edge in deciding to try it was a conversation I had with Stephen Magsig at an opening at the Washington County Museum of Fine Arts. Seeing his incredible work and hearing his passion for the discipline, convinced me to try it.

So, after several false starts and more disastrous paintings than I would like to admit (this is not as easy as it may look), I present you with my version of Daily Painting. I hope you enjoy.
