#30in30 - Day 19 - Spirit of the Falls


This painting is taking its time but I’m still following my challenge topic of texture. The last couple of days I have shown a metal leaf section and an applied dried “skin” acrylic section. Today I added metal leaf over the chunky skins and more dark areas.

Part of the challenge with this painting is integrating two distinct areas, one of which has floating First Nation imagery and the other water and mist. I was thrilled to find some puffy colorful orb stickers to add. Perhaps some painted bubbles in the watery part will also help. There is more crackle under the paint which I hope will develop and yet to come, metal mesh and carefully choreographed sections of gloss and matt brushwork.

Although there are hundreds of artists registered in the 30 day challenge, only about 100 paintings are posted on the blog each day. Some artists are painting each day but not completing a daily painting, which is what I’m doing here. There is a core group that manage to create a new piece each day and they should be applauded. Visit the challenge blog below and see the amazing variety produced.
