Lonely Tree

Art Every Day Month (AEDM) has been a blast and I am thankful that I found Leah's website. Thank you to all who have left comments. Thank you also to Leah Piken Kolidas, who started the Creative Every Day blog, and inspires all of us to live a creative life. I hope to continue on with Creative Every Day, the year-long challenge. Even though my AEDM paintings aren't masterpieces, I feel accomplished.

The past two days I've felt like painting in black and white. Maybe it's my dull mood from the weather. I love black and white though! Here is the painting I worked on this morning based on a photo that I took at Garden of the Gods last summer, the last of my AEDM paintings for 2009!

I actually painted this on Friday and didn't get around to posting it until today.

Pine trees

I haven't had much success in the past couple of days coming up with something to paint. I know I know...I can paint anything around me. I've just not had much inspiration today. So here are some trees. When all else fails, practice painting trees and clouds! :)
