I am still painting, just not posting everyday!   I did get a little behind on Friday, but I feel caught up now!  I'm finding it a challenge to post daily, usually due to the fact that by the time I finish my painting, its dark and I have to take the photos inside...the lighting in my studio area is still not that great, but it will have to do!  I'm learning more about taking indoor painting photos!    Here's my latest bunch of paintings from the last three days!

"Lake Louise Sketch" acrylic on canvas panel 5X7 inch.

"Mount Baker Sketch 3" acrylic on canvas panel palette knife painted 5X7 inch.

"Mount Baker Sketch 2" acrylic on canvas panel 5X7 inch.
My favourite of these three is the Lake Louise Sketch.  I used a couple photos I had of Lake Louise plus a photo of a painting by California Impressionist painter Edgar Payne (1883-1947) of Lake Louise to get the colours and values.  I enjoyed working on this one.
 The palette knife painting of Mount Baker was a lot of fun to do.  I need to do more palette knife.  I find I enjoy the looseness, and the ability to blend thick paint gives me interesting paint effects!

Which one do you like!??  Thanks for looking!

I love them all but if I had to pick it's Mount Baker Sketch #2 -- the moody purples and blues one. This is an astonishing output, Sheila! And such fun for your fans. A painting a day!

I like them all. I think the Mt Baker 2 is my favourite.. Simple and striking!

This whole project has a feel about it that's very much like Nanowrimo, except in paint! That feeling of "Eeek, I'm falling behind," then madly working to catch up, getting swept along in the excitement, for one month of mad art making - it's just the same. Very cool.
My favourite is Lake Louise.
