30 Painting in 30 days - Feb 2018: DONE!!


Wow! Like I said yesterday,  this month flew by!!!! I am very happy it's over and I'm very pleased with what I accomplished. I explored a few different bodies of work that I am for sure going to continue  working with. In fact, I am already working with the small works that I considered were successful and making them bigger.  These past 30 days also gave me more confidence to tackle larger canvas. I put into practice something I have been wanting to do for a long time which was to start using thicker paint. I am so glad I did it even when some days I didn't really feel like it!
Again, thank you so much for following along, for encouraging  and supporting me, there's a few paintings that already went on to other homes!! Congratulations to all the artists that participated in this challenge! If you want to see some of the work produced and discover some favourite artists, you can visit Leslie Saeta's blog. I'll be back with regular  blog posts soon,  not everyday though!! Talk soon!

Wow! Como dije ayer, este mes ha volado!!!! Estoy contenta de que  el desfio haya terminado y estoy muy satisfecha con lo que he logrado. he explorado varias series con las que voy a seguir, en realidad ya he empezado a agrandar los que considero salieron bien. Este último mes también me dio mas confianza para atacar lienzos de mayor tamano  y empecé a por en práctica algo que hace mucho quiero hacer, usar mas pintura para lograr as texturas. Estoy muy contenta de haber echo el desafío aún cuando muchos días no tenía ganas!
Nuevamente, les agardezco por haberme seguido, alentado y apoyado, hay akgunos cuadros que ya han encontrado hogares nuevos!! Felicitaciones a todos los artistas que participaron en el dfío, pueden ir a el Blog de Leslie Saeta para ver muchas de las creaciones. Voy a seguir escribiendo de forma regular pero no todos los días! Hasta Pronto!!

Wow, time flies when you are having fun! Today is the last day of the challenge and I am both happy and sad about that of course. About this painting, when I went to the store to get pears for painting back then I was amazed at how many different varieties we have, unfortunately, I can't say I got to taste them all and their differences as a few of them needed to go in the compost after posing for a while!! I had done this painting at the beginning of the challenge but they had needed a bit of TLC back then. Well in the last couple of days they got as much TLC as they will ever get, happy with some things about it, not so with some others but for now, challenge done! Thank you for following along and cheering on, it always means a lot of course, Thank you!

Wow, cómo pasa el tiempo cuando uno se divierte! Hoy es el último día del desafío y estoy como siempre contenta y triste a la vez. Cuando fui al supermercado a comprar peras para pintar no me había dado cuenta que hay tantas variedades distintas, desfortunadamente, no puedo decir que las he probado a todas ya que una cuantas tuvieron que ir a la pila de compost después de posar tantos días!! Había empezado este cuadrito al comienzo del desafío y le hacía falta un poco mas, estos últimos dos días volví a trabajar en él un poquito y  he echo todo lo que voy a hacer, no estoy convencida del todo, hay cosas que me gustan y otras que no pero por ahora, listo! Desafío terminado! Gracias a todos por haberme seguido y alentado todo el mes, se los agradezco de corazón, Gracias!
