Month One

So, the first month of painting for the 150 is done.  I have to say, this past month has been the most productive month artistically for me - ever.  I completed 3 paintings for a show in Nov/Dec called "Inspirations", almost done with a fourth.  I cleaned and stained  4 gourds, and finished 4 egg gourd ornaments for a commission.  I completed an altered book for the public library's altered book show in September, and painted 9 paintings for the 150 show.  I was hoping for 10 but I just couldn't get the  last one done. I have 3 more paintings started for the 150.  (I will also use any of the 4 paintings for Inspirations that don't sell toward the 150 since I started them in August.)  So I'm counting that I have 12 completed pieces for the 150 right now. Not bad - I'm on track. :)  Please check out "Angela's 150" paintings to see what I've done so far.

"Libro de los Muertos"
Just for fun, the altered book

A little update - I am only showing in Topeka at the Upstage Gallery and the Collective Gallery now.  If there are any pieces you have seen other places and can't find now, contact me and I would be happy to arrange a time to meet.
