30 paintings in 30 days challenge

Leslie Saeta is hosting another" 30 paintings in 30 days challenge" starting January 1st, 2017.  I signed up for it. Gulp!
It takes some guts to do this kind of thing. I am not very good at painting every day. And, I don't like showing anybody my work.
 However, I happened to meet an artist the other day while looking around our new home-to-be city, Littleton, Colorado. He had a small studio in a strip mall advertising classes. There was an old dog sitting at the back of the shop and I just had to go in and say, "hi". I love dogs.
The artist had a lot of brillian fall colors landscapes with big brush strokes and lots of energy. I commented on their beauty and he said he did most in the 30 days challenge.
"It's fun" he said. "Paint flies everywhere and you just get lost in it."
I guess his enthusiasm rubbed off on me 'cause today I got the e-mail invitation to join in the "fun".
