Daily Painting

Daily painting is an exercise in motivation and perseverance. These may not be the first qualities one looks for in a summer project. Summer is for taking off. Summer is for lazing around. What if one just doesn't feel like painting? Well, I plan to find out by painting nearly everyday during my summer on Long Beach Island in New Jersey. It will be just me holding myself to this goal by posting each day. I hope by painting everyday to hone my skills and to see what develops in style and technique. By the time I leave for Denver in August I will have 42 paintings; most decent, some disasters and a few really good ones. That is my goal.

  1. Diane: really enjoy this and your other water paintings. I did a lot of moving water paintings over the years, and found it is really a challenge. Looking forward to seeing the entire group once you complete your time there. TIlli

  2. This is reminding of one of the Impressionists, but I can't think of which one. Maybe Gauguin, if he counts.
