Santa Fe #18 by Suzy Pal Powell

This was a hard painting for me. It took me all day! I had some new boards and had to do something to give it some tooth so it wouldn't be so slick.  This is larger too, than what I have been painting on.

It is 6x12".  I also added the sketch and the photo that I used.  i changed up the background. It had too much green for me!

All of my gates and doors are availabe at this address...along with some other art.

Day 15 by Suzy Pal Powell

We are half way through with the 30 day challenge. Seems like it has gone fairly fast!
I am late getting mine done today.  Had to be gone most of the day.  This is 6x8 acrylic on gessobord.

Santa Fe Gates and Doors #12 and 13 by Suzy Pal Powell

I didn't get to post yesterday, we were canning peas. What fun! that is a lot of hard work! Plus it affects the allergies. But we got them done and had fun as a family doing them.  Here is Day 12 and 13 combined. I think i have a new favorite for today.. Day 13.  Maybe because it was pretty hard to paint the steps behind the gate! Another challenge!
These are both 6x8 on gessobord, painted with acrylics.  I am beginning to appreciate the acrylics a little more. It is just so different that watercolors.

Santa Fe #2

I am already wondering WHY I decided to do the challenge! haha, but I am no quitter so I will stick it out. So here is Gate #2.  I had to change some colors because it just wasn't working for me.
This is 5x7 and available on my website or Daily Paintworks.

Santa Fe #1 by Suzy Pal Powell

I decided at the last minute....the day before... to join the 30 paintings in 30 days, starting today.
It is really a challenge just to get something painted each day.  I am planning on doing Santa Fe Gates, but may not be able to stand to paint 30 of them! I am also trying with acrylics, always trying to challenge and push myself to improve.  So far, I don't like acrylics!
they will be posted on my website in the store area if you are interested in buying any of them.
