It has definitely proved to be a challenge to
finish a painting every day. But it does push me to be in the studio more frequently, even when I don't have loads of time. Here are a few of the latest, which are up on my
Daily Paintworks Gallery.
These are all 6"x6", acrylic on panel, some with collage:

These small paintings give me an opportunity to focus my visual ideas. It is a way of paring down a visual statement, trying to get it clear and simple. I would like to use this format to make studies for larger works. Not sure how that will work, or IF it will work. I don't generally use sketches or studies to create larger work. But the practice of finishing a piece in one or two sittings is similar to my Five Minute Paintings, in that it makes me focus and make aesthetic decisions more readily.
LOVE the halo effect in #10. What a commitment for someone so busy!
