Another Artist Website

As I said in my last post, I am going to share some artist websites that I have found to be of great inspiration to me. The one today is http://www.dailypainters.com/. I look forward to checking this site every day to see what is new. I have even tried the "painting a day" concept, but I have found that I get stuck painting small and don't do any bigger pieces. Also, it is hard to do a painting everyday. It is amazing to me to sometimes see that other people are working on the same things that I am, and I love to see what they are doing with it.

Inspiration and Vacation

I have been on vacation for two weeks. Or should I say, I have had children and grandchildren visiting, and although it was a great time, it was no vacation. I think I need a vacation now! Needless to say, I have not been painting! I am going to start posting some of the websites and blogs of artists I follow; I find great inspiration in seeing what these wonderful people are doing. Especially when I am not finding the time to paint, it is so nice to be able to see what is going on in the art world. The first site I would recommend is www.arthousecoop.com. I love all the projects this site has going on, and I am participating in the Sketchbook project and hope to see the exhibit in Atlanta next spring.

Minimalist Abstract Painting

I found an older painting of mine last week and realized that it is akin to what I am working on now. I think I can use this to continue a series of more minimalist abstract renditions of my same theme of "Thin Places". I have found several blogs that I now love and am following, and I will try to link them to my blog as soon as I learn how!
