Been Neglecting My Post More Paintings

Shapes, Animals, and Colors Lose Their Spark After Death 2026. Oil on paper, 18 x 24"

Lately, the three-a-day until 20,000 has got me playing catch-up because I’m off gallivanting. Each day away from the easel means I have to make up 3 paintings for the day missed. Well, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I attended the Blue Heron Music Festival to help with the grandchildren and watch my daughter’s boyfriend perform with his band. Great fun! However, 9 paintings to make up. By doing 5 a day four days this week, and then 4 on Saturday (my week begins on Sunday), I can fill the days missed last weekend. Phew! And then there are regular summer chores to attend to. Cooking, cleaning, laundry, lawn, garden, rest if I want it. Without the latter, or at least the freedom to do nothing, why have any summer at all? I need this beautiful summer weather to remind me how awful the winters are along the southeastern corridor of Lake Ontario. Three paintings a day for practice accumulating 20,000 in 20 years. Even more incentive now that @jompiy is doing the same. Here are a few from last week. I managed 19 before leaving for the festival. So, wait a sec... Actually, I need to make three paintings a day through Saturday, and I’ll be all caught up, since I’ve made five the last three days.
