The Bike

Day 30 ~ Tandem
Having weddings on our minds these days, one of my daughters told me that I need to have a card suitable for weddings, and that she thought a tandem bike could be my inspiration for this… So I tried painting a tandem bike…

That’s it for the 30 days. I was able to post a painting every day, except for two. 🙂 I think that is the most I’ve ever done on the 30 day challenge. I wish I had more time each day to view what all the other artists were doing. Looking forward to seeing the collages. If you would like to view them go to Leslie’s blog… September 2015 30 Paintings in 30 Days
Day 15 ~ Old Barn Bike

Day 24 ~ Collecting Wildflowers
12″ x 12″ oil on black canvas
I started this painting Friday, the 27th and now it’s Monday, the 30th, the last day of the 30 Paintings in 30 Days. Already the other artists are finishing up and making collages and I’m still trekking along. This one was inspired by my bike and the wildflowers I collected to make one huge beautiful wildflower bouquet.
My weekend was full of family and friends. We had a great time… love spending time with my grandchildren. But now I’ve got a whole lot of catching up to do, not just in painting, but my garden, my broody hen laying on 14 eggs under my porch and more…much more…
I am trading one pf my paintings for another painting done by an artist and I will share that in another post. I’m really excited about trading or bartering, an idea that came about by a spinner who is trading me homespun for a painting. What a fabulous idea!
So, if anyone would like to trade or barter, just let me know. 🙂
