Happy 2019!

Happy 2019 everyone! This year I have made a resolution to become a better, faster painter. As part of that, I have begun a Daily Painting Practice, and I'm reading "The War of Art by Steven Pressfield. Here is a recap of Week 1 using Golden Fluid Acrylics on Canvas and experimenting with a red/magenta toned background.

Day 1 of my Daily Painting Practice--toned canvas and did rough under painting with Golden Fluid Acrylic's Payne's Gray.

On Day 2 - began another painting, and on Days 3 -5 started filling in layers of colors. I like the way the red/magenta toning sparkles through in some areas.
