Daily Art #2957

This morning I put my first layer of oil paint on the canvas and intentionally kept it as intense as possible.

These layers are preparation for subsequent layers and I hope that they will bleed through the following strokes and create a vibrancy from beneath.

Warm-up

The basic warm-up.

What went well, what was awesome! Celebrate It!

Started actually painting!

What needs work? What did you learn?

I’m making notes as I’m working on this painting and plan to culminate them into one place.

How am I going to Optimize moving forward?

Continue as I am, keep it consistent.

I'm an artist on a mission to do at least 30 minutes of art every single day for the rest of my life and track that progress on my website for all to see. I'm past the 10 year mark and I'm still going strong. Now it's time to give back and help other artists create a life long habit of creating.
