This one was really fun to paint.  I only used black and white, and I love the look of it. It has a lot of texture, that you can't see in this photo.

Tomorrow the theme is, "the woods"  Check in to see my interpretation!

Winter Hush Abstract Original Painting Day One 30 Day Painting Challenge

Here we go!

Day #1 of my 30 Paintings in 30 Days Art Challenge 

"Winter Hush"
Acrylic on Canvas with 1.5 inch sides
6x6 inches
Christy Tremblay (c) 2017

The theme for today was "Nude."  My original thought was to paint an abstract with a nude color palette and nothing really resembling any particular object. I decided to challenge myself a bit, and attempt these abstract winter trees.  I really like the texture and color combination. Overall, I am happy with the feel of this first painting.

What do you think?  I would love to hear your thoughts.

This painting is for available!  Shipping is included on this link. SHOP  here!


Tomorrow's theme is Black and White.  I hope you can check in and see what I come up with.

The holidays are creeping up and I sure am busy! Make sure to scroll to the bottom to see my new art collections, perfect for gifts!

 I have been painting like crazy, entering art shows, hosting art shows in my home, and trying to learn to market my art...it's exhausting and super wonderful, all at the same time!  Did I forget to mention, taking care of my family -two daughters, husband, and our dog!  Yes, learning to carve out time for my art is a full time project.

To share with you some of my most recent art events is my pleasure.

I hosted a Gallery Hop in our home.  It was a lot of work, but worth it all. I had about fifty people come through and sold a lot of new and older works of art.  My home was turned into a gallery for the evening and a lot of wine, good food, friends, conversation, and art happened. It was a wonderful evening!

I was recently chosen to have one of my new paintings in an all women's juried art show.

This work of art has been accepted in an upcoming juried art show. It will be for sale during the month of the show.

The following are the details of this art call.

Art Show Info

Believing Is Seeing

In the world of science as in much of life, seeing is believing. In the world of art, more often the reverse is true: believing is seeing. In the studio an artist borrows from her own imagination and vision, whether from a very personal inner world, or from the material world around her. Starting with a blank canvas, a lump of clay, or a found object, and drawing on her own life experience and beliefs, the artist transforms her vision into art, sharing her truth with others. This juried exhibition of WCA/DC members’ work affirms their belief that art can be seen all around us.

The Women’s Caucus for Art - District of Columbia Chapter has issued a call for entries for a juried show that opens on December 2, 2016 at Artists and Makers Galleries in Rockville, MD. Rebecca Cross, owner of the Cross MacKenzie Gallery in Georgetown, will jury the show.

New Art Store...HEAVEN!

Hi!

We have landed in our new home!  Getting settled after our move from Texas to Virginia and looking forward to finding and adding inspiration to my Blog.  I know it's been a while since I have posted!  No apologies to make though, we have had a busy summer and moving takes A LOT out of me.  I am also learning/trying to stop apologizing for so many things. Take one day at a time and do your best each day. And if you aren't your best, find inspiration, to use at a later time...

I have had time to reflect on my art creating and the past year of blogging.  Although I don't know what lies ahead this year, for me - art wise, I do know that I still need to create art. 

My studio is still in boxes...but I know soon I will be able to unpack and set up my new creative space...which this time around, is in an extra bedroom. Pictures to come soon!

Today I found an art supply store near our house. After two years of living without a good art supply store near by, I was in heaven! Sensory overload, to say the least.  If you are a creative person, I know you can relate to the feeling of seeing a row full of vivid, soft pastels waiting to be crushed on a canvas.

 Love these Japanese Papers!

Inspiration! I love adding paper to a mixed media painting. 

Mixed media inspiration!

Wonderful mediums to use with mixed media art! 

Thank you for taking a peek into my day!  I look forward to sharing more art inspirations with you, from my new Virginia home.


Something Fun! 

While I haven't been able to make any new paintings...being busy with the move, I have had fun designing these Fun Drink Coasters!

 These artist printed coasters are from, "A Painted House A Day," Art Collection of my original mixed media paintings on canvas. Now available as stunning sets of drinks coasters!
