30! Self-Portrait and Project conclusion

______

' self portrait '

Not my favorite subject. Would have liked to have more 

time to explore a self-portrait but the spirit of our

project is what counts. And it has been a great

experience. Hat's off to my partner here, Ann, for

her dedication, discipline and enthusiasm! And,

wonderful paintings.

‘Self Portrait in the 30th Day’

oil on canvas

14” x 11”

Omg 30 paintings in 30 days. This one almost killed me. Nothing like a self portrait to make you test your insecurity and self judgement. But I wanted to note the end of this project and how much it consumed me. Jim (my partner in the 30 day challenge) and I worked through holidays, family celebrations, bad weather, sickness and frankly sort of exhaustion at the end.
