Day One of my Painting a Day ART CHALLENGE~Jacquelyn’s Stone

Today I began my painting a day challenge. Well, let me tell you I picked a more complicated subject than I imagined! I seem to do that to myself often though so no surprise there. This took a huge part of my day, but, I DID IT! As my own worst critic I can see plenty of things I would change if I were to do this portrait again and I learned which is the whole idea. My typical medium is oil…watercolor is new to me and I love it. So, kudos to me. I’m thrilled to have made it through day one.

Now what will happen to the portraits I accomplish?

Last night I wasn’t so sure, but, today while painting I’ve had lots of time to think about this. Owners have first dibs on whether they would like to buy the painting. The cost is $100 and that includes shipping. The painting is unframed. If the owner is not interested in purchasing the painting I will list it on my Etsy shop and it will be up for grabs to anyone who is interested.
