A Park View- Art Challenge: Tucson Twilight-painting process

Friday

Tucson Twilight-painting process

A short picture review of my painting process for Tucson Twilight, the art challenge picture for June/July 2010.

I got caught up painting and forgot to stop and take a few pictures after I decided to add the porch enclosure. I liked the painting as it was, but felt that I was not reaching out past my own self imposed artistic limits. Since this challenge is to stretch- I took a quick snapshot with my signature and then proceeded to paint through it! Yikes! For me, that was scary, but I really like the finished painting and it felt DONE.

Art challenge

An Art Challenge can help you reach further in your artistic journey. It can help you step out of a painting or life doldrum.

From the time that we are children, we strive to color perfectly. Admiring anyone who can color inside the lines! This art challenge is about learning new techniques, loosening the perfection tie, and learning to color outside the lines.

You might want to use this art challenge or one of the ones I have listed under the tab, Art Opportunites, as an opportunity to experiment with a new technique or as an incentive to share the moment of your painting joy with others. I would love to see what you have created.

I am learning daily, I may change a few things as I go, adjusting as I learn..... the website, my everyday life, the expressions of paint on canvas, etc...etc...etc...

I will also post my art challenge work from other art challenges where I participate.

If you like to color, experiment artistically in a new direction, design a collage card, carve the design, make a quilt, stain glass, there are so many ways to be creative.

Paint it via watercolor, pastel, oil, acrylic, drawing, oil pastel. As you can see there are so many options. Use the reference photo to share your creative ability.

If you use my photograph to create anything and show it in any public format, please include credit to me for original image or a link back to this site. If you enjoy my work, tell others.

Do you want me to share your art challenge work from this art challenge? Then send me a clear, sharp image of the completed project and email it to debbiechavers@gmail.com
