The 100 Paintings In a Year Challenge is intended for artists that are dedicated to the growth and development of their style as well as their artistic voice. The challenge also provides a means for overcoming areas in need of improvement.
The paintings should be a mix of small, medium and large pieces, some sketches, plein aire, and studio work; work from life as well as from photos. The variety is meant to push the artist out of any rut, to provide ample opportunity to create no matter what other time obligations are going on, and to challenge the artist if they do not create in one of these categories. The work can be done in any medium, but it is strongly advised that the artist consider choosing one medium in which to do the Challenge as this will help facilitate faster growth than trying to master multiple mediums.
DO NOT JUDGE the artwork! When a piece is complete, set it aside and move to the next piece of work. Learning to suspend judgement of our work is a major step forward in the development our skills.
Once committed, the expectation is that the artist will fully participate in the blog by posting on a regular basis as well as leaving encouraging comments of others' artwork through comments.
The challenge may be started at any time.

I love how green blue and red were bleeding together in the fist piece's background. Such alternative colors and so looking good together.
The waterlilies are so gentle and so fresh!
Thank you,
Irina
Teri, you got the vibrancy of both the blooms. I really love the first one...its so alive. and the water lilies look so natural as they float in the water.
Cette peinture me rappelle un travail que je viens de réaliser en Land Art. En France les Water Lilies se nomment les Nénuphars. Tu dois connaitre le grand maitre impressionniste Claude Monet, qui passa la fin de sa vie à peindre, ces fleurs, à qui il donnait le nom de Nymphéas.
Belle soirée à toi et bravo pour tes peintures et ton blog que je très très intéressant.
Best Wishes,
Roger
Gorgeous colors and beautifully painted!
