Days 5-7 are up!

My internet connection is down so it's a little harder for me to upload.Please bear with me.

Day 4
Todays painting is more illustrative than the others. This is a 9x12 acrylic on canvas board.
Colors I used: Payne's Grey, Yellow Ochre,Grumbacher Red,Hookers Green,Titanium White
I also used a glazing medium by Golden to paint the shine of the moon.I wanted the colors of the back and middle ground to be very muted and the figure in the foreground to stand out the most. Even thoguh I still used a muted red color for her dress mixed with a bit of green.

I will not post on the 24th and 25th but on the 26th I post both of the days paintings.

Day 3 of my 30 Day Painting Challenge

9x12 Acrylic on canvas board

I went for a smaller painting today and stuck to the theme of mountains(which I am soft of obsessed with lately) My painting are natural looking landscapes,for the most part, but I do go for a slight element of fantasy. This painting took me about an hour and a half.( not including a quick Oolong Tea break.)

Colors I used where Payne's Grey,Yellow Ochre,Cadmium Yellow,Titanium White,Cerulean Blue,Burnt Seina

Here it is my day 2 painting! I really enjoyed this one, and really wanted this one to be a bit more challenging than the first painting. This painting took about 4 hours and I probably won't do such a big painting for a while, at least not during this challenge. This painting is 16 x 20 on art board. I had some trouble with the tree at first and wondered if it ruined the whole painting. After stepping away for a few I decided I really liked the tree.

Thank you to everyone for checking out my work and following me through this challenge. I'll be back with an update and a new painting  tomorrow.

Painting # 1


Hey everyone! I have decided to finally go one the 30 Day Painting Challenge! For anyone who has never heard of it before, basically I will paint 1 picture every day for 30 days. There are so many different reasons to start this challenge, here are a few that I like the most.

-In 30 days I will 30 new paintings! I know thats obvious but what you want to do with those new paintings may not be. ( 30 new peices for a portfolio to show to galleries, of sell online.)

-It's a clear and fast way to improve on your talent. Form the first painting to the last I will be able to easily see and share the progress I have made as an artist.

- It's a good way to stay motivated and develope good habits.

So I will be back every day for the next 30 days with a new painting to show and talk about some of the things I went through while painting it. At the end of the challenge I will reflect on my progress.
- Alexa Lebron

Been experimenting with some new things lately. I think i'm really starting to find my style.
