Well, I did it. Thirty days of painting in silence for ten minutes each day with no pressure to finish the painting.
And it’s a good thing there was no pressure to finish, because she is, indeed, unfinished. 🙂 Thankfully, I’ve carved out some time this month to sit with her for as long as she needs to get here there, so please stay tuned for that.
I’m going to do some work to integrate what I’ve learned over the course of these thirty days, film getting her all dolled up with the finishing touches I want her to have, and the present my thoughts, feels, and the finished painting at some point in the second week of December. I already have some idea of where I’m taking her, and it will be nice to sit down without a timer!
This was a really good experience for me, and I hope you enjoyed it, too. Here’s the video from Day Thirty so you can hear me ramble a bit about what’s to come.
I’ll see you again very soon.

P.S. Folks who are in my classes over on Into The Wild (my teaching network) or Patreon are getting video content every day throughout the course of this challenge. Folks who are subscribed to my YouTube channel will be getting video updates weekly or so. There may be stuff going up on TikTok. There will definitely be posts going up on Instagram.
Of course, this spot right here will ALSO serve as my studio diary, so I hope you’ll bookmark the site, and hey! EVEN BETTER! I hope you’ll sign up for the e-list, which I’ll use to let you know when a new post goes live. If you want the project PDF, here you go!
