10 Minute Challenges

 Updating my blog.  The photos from early posts had disappeared as well as all my early paintings so I thought an update was in order.

These paintings are from when I made the decision to get serious about painting.   I found the Daily Paintworks website and this challenge.  So I began with kitchen timer set and did these all in one afternoon.   It was the spring of 2012, 9 years after I had started classes at the Victoria College of Art.  These were  also amongst my first experiments with oil paint.  I was pretty pleased with myself, but even then it took a lot of stops and starts to get on with it!  Lots of mistakes, but I also see bits I like.
