Five Days. That's it. OMG.

The January Thirty Paintings in Thirty Days starts in five days. That cannot be possible. And just so you know, I just sent reminders to everyone who signed up for the 2016 September 30 in 30 Challenge so please sign up if you haven't done it already.

I am a bit intimidated by my theme for this year's Challenge. I am painting paintings that fit on the show Fixer Upper (which means I am creating paintings that could hang in any of the renovated homes from the show Fixer Upper). This will be a very different look for me as so many of the Fixer Upper houses are designed in the Industrial Farmhouse decor which means no bright paintings this month. Ugh. (Ok, maybe I will sneak in a few.) But it's about time I pushed myself out of my comfort zone!

If you would like to participate in the January Thirty Paintings in 30 Days Challenge just click here for all of the information on how to participate. It's a lot of fun and a really great thing to do (it changed my life!) so give it a try.

And please remember the only requirement is that you HAVE FUN. If you don't get all thirty paintings done you will be the only person that knows. So enjoy yourself!

So I am curious. What is your theme for the January Challenge?

I am not sure what exactly my "theme" will be yet. I have been looking through my images to sort what I will paint, I may start with my dog Bella and elephants from my visits to the zoo. I am planning soon to draw some compositions ahead of time in the next few days. So maybe I may take one image and compose it in a few different ways. I am really looking forward to this challenge. I will be using watercolors.

Think I will step outside of my comfort zone and do abstracts! So many beautiful colors inspired me from the Christmas cards I received this year
