Take Your Mark, Get Set ...

Pin It
My wonderful husband is throwing me a "50th" birthday dinner this Saturday night and I have been searching for the perfect "party favor" gift for weeks. Everyone that is attending is a dear, dear friend and I really want to give them all a wonderful thank you gift. At first I thought of gift cards (which depict my paintings) ... but that seemed boring. Then I considered putting together a small gift box containing a few of my favorite things such as candy, etc. But that seemed boring too.
Finally, I came up with the perfect idea ... I have decided to paint 32 paintings. In four days. I figure if Marc Hanson can paint four paintings a day in plein air then I can paint eight a day in my studio. I just bought the art panels and they are all 6" x 6". And they will all depict my favorite subject matter ... boats! Stay tuned ... I will post as I paint. Off to the studio!!!
