Misty Mountains
Painting with Jane
Day 1

So I haven't been painting much and was thinking about doing some smaller, less intense, paintings to get back in the groove. I had my eye on Carole Marine's book "Daily Painting". Then Jane announced that she read this book and was heading her tutorials in that direction. Perfect!  I bought the book on Amazon.  It arrived Aug 14 and in less than 2 weeks I had read it.

On Sept 1, Jane posted her first video, so late that night I started and finished the first sometime around 1:30-2:00 am on Sept 2.  Below is Misty Mountains, my 1st daily painting with Jane.

BAQ #5

Geisha

The Quest for BAQ #5 was Geisha inspire.  This was tougher than I thought it would be.  I was doing ok until I left my paint mixes out and they dried.  I didn't quite get the same mix after so ended up re-painting the face I had already done.  Overall, still pretty happy but know that it could be better.  

Here's the link to the Tutorial by The Art Sherpa:

BAQ # 4

Galactic Soul


As soon as I saw the pic of our next quest, I knew it would be quite involved.  Painting an underwater scene that included goldfish and air bubbles, with a galaxy going on above, and then a face as well.  It took me a while to get started but i did and proud to be finished.  This one required practice in my journal before committing to canvas, or canvas board.

 This week was learning eyes.  Yesterday a front on version, and today a side version.  I'm pretty happy with how these turned out.
