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.

Wow these are georgous! Love the depth from the shadows.
...beautiful, Brinda. I really like the last two...the last of the two fishermen being my favorite.
Thanks MEliz and Kelly. I appreciate your looking and taking time to comment.
It's so nice to have your pictures up, Brinda. I always look forward to seeing them. The street in Portugal is such a fun narrow street with great shapes on those buildings and the stones! You have made the skinniest lines of color for the doors and windows to create the proper perspective and it really works. I love also looking out your window with you, at those lovely trees over the contrasting rooftops, and to the distant trees/hills beyond.
