I am challenging myself to work on my art every day and create a minimum of 2 finished pieces each week. My intention is to explore ideas and techniques and push myself beyond my comfort zone. I will be working in a series with several different images. My interests at this time are drawing, line, texture and color. I will be posting exercises and challenges for myself and any others who wish to join in the Creativity Journey.

GALLERY CONCORD'S GUITAR
I was sitting at the Gallery Concord on Saturday. This was the first chance I had to see the guitar we are painting for a charity auction. The City of Concord is sponsoring this event. It is along the lines of the cows, hearts, horses and others that have been so popular in the past few years. We decided to have each member of the gallery create a small painting. These were reproduced and collaged on the guitar. The guitar is life size. Old used paint tubes and brushes were glued to the base. I think it is looking great. It needs to be varnished and then I think it will be done. My contribution is on the back. It is the little girl. You can see my signature. It will be interesting to see who bids on this piece and where it will wind up. During the promotion, it will be on display at the gallery. If you are in the area, stop by and see it up close.
What a great idea!! That guitar looks very cool. Wish I could see it up close. Hope it brings in plenty of cash!!
