Ready To Begin

In less than 5 days the new 30 Paintings in 30 Day Challenge will begin. I am really excited about this new challenge. For a little over a year I have been starting off my morning with a cup of coffee and a daily abstract painting. This past May I injured my knee and this part of my morning had to be put on hold. Well, "I'm Back"  Many artist will tell you that one of the best ways to improve your craft is by ; painting, painting and more  painting. I completely agree. so here goes; My goal is to spend the month of September working on a new technique. I love the idea of creating my abstracts, incorporating more than one technique.
    I have ordered a number of new materials from Blick Art  and Plaza Art for this upcoming challenge.  On the not so small list, is a new Gelli Plate. It is a great way to Monoprint without the large press. It will allow great backgrounds to be created, using masking, shapes can easily be incorporated into the abstract. 
Be sure to stop by to check out the days results. I'll be sure to add a link to my supply list as new material is included.  Till Friday...Happy Painting.
