The New 365 Days of Painting Project is LIVE!

Hello! It's an exciting time in the chilly Mitten! I've begun a brand new 365 days of painting and I can't wait to share it with you! Below is a synopsis of what I'm up to; as outlined below, you can always keep an eye on THIS PAGE (or FACEBOOK) for updates as well. 

What's the Process? 

• Create a realistic painting on 4x4" rounded-corner "coasters" (heavy card stock) every day for a year. 
• The maximum (creation) time limit per painting is 1 hr. & each are done a day ahead of posting.
• Every day of the week has a theme with occasional (saucy) bonus paintings thrown in on Mondays (see below).
• Daily posts are made to new dedicated IG (address TBD) & Twitter accounts, my established FB page & a page that lives here. 

What's New?

In the past, I'd just wing my 365 projects and rapidly run out of ideas. Devising a new object every day becomes exhausting fast, leading to dread, and that doesn't jibe with happy art-making. This time I'm out-smarting myself with several pre-emptive moves - a one-hour time limit per day for painting creation, creating the paintings a day in advance (so I'm not posting them the day-of at 11:59pm), a stockpile of 400 sheets of paper already "torn down" to the perfect uniform size, the themes you see below, and a veritable cornucopia of references that I amassed before the project started. 

What are the Themes?

What's the End Game? 

• Gallery show(s).
• Selling the original paintings, prints, posters of each/each theme.
• Authoring a Bored Panda article.
• Pitching a coffee table-esque book to a publisher.
