Since last week’s blog post, I’ve heard from several people who told me that they are also embarking on the 100-day journey this year. I’m so delighted to be engaging creatively alongside friends!
So far, I’m twelve for twelve: I’ve drafted an oil pastel landscape for each of the days since I’ve begun this year’s 100-day process. Some of my pieces have upcycled materials buried under the pigment; paper bag, paper towel, a plastic envelope window, and a compostable takeout box are a few such items.
What you see pictured here is a compilation of nine of the twelve paintings-in-progress. Each one below is drafted from and inspired by an actual landscape I’ve been to and photographed during sunrise or sunset.
What you don't see on this blog is the daily writing I've done on my book manuscript. Each day I've added or edited content. This pairing of visual artwork with writing seems to be working out once again. And I’m so grateful.
