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.

Visualizing The National Portrait Gallery
Museum by dumpr.net Isn't this cool!!!!!! Check out this website where you can put one of your paintings in a museum setting. I believe in visualization, so I thought I would "picture" success.
They will announce the 100 finalists in late November. Those pieces are sent to Washington on their dime and are judged in person. I believe they will select around 70 to be on exhibit in the National Portrait Gallery (which is part of the Smithsonian) for one year. This is my positive visualization to influence the Universe to make it happen!
What fun. Tried two of my paintings and I can see that they don't merit a museum hanging! A great test for myself. How do you find all these great Web sites?
Loved your workshop demos this week. I must make some time to do your challenges now that I'm home.
