#30×30 2026 : A Weird One

June 11, 2026

If you have to paint one painting a day, sometimes you pick something entirely at random, and then do something entirely random with it.

    That’s one voluminous dress! And you caught her oh-so-proper posture.

    Love the colours.

    You caught the voluminous dress, her posture, and then added some gorgeous colour.

    HA! Before I saw the reference photo I thought she had a bullhead on her noggin. I do like the way you left the whites and handled the folds. Peggy

    I love how the lacy cuff on the left came out in particular!

    Very creative and loose… I just get so dang literal.

      Thanks! Yes, I always regret it when I paint something exaclty like it looks (or exactly like the photo). My feeling is, why make something if it’s just a copy right? I like to add my own taste on top :) Right? Right!
