I cannot believe it is Day thirty of the 30 Paintings in 30 Days September Challenge. When I came up with my Project Runway inspired theme I had no idea that it would be this much fun. So what did I learn?
First, I have realized that I can design an abstract painting from just about anything. Give me a photo of a room (or a dress!) and I know I can paint a good painting. I also know that abstract painting is the direction I am heading in the future. I have no doubt.
For my final challenge painting, I based it on who I think is the best all-time designer on Project Runway. It was a tough decision because I love them all. But Season Four had the best designs. And the winner, Christian Siriano, is by far the most talented and successful designer launched from the show. Ever.
The dress I used for my inspiration is a classic and was one of many amazing designs in Christian's season finale collection. 
Thanks Project Runway for making this last 30 days such an incredible journey. You really made it work.
Tomorrow all of the participants will be posting a collage of their paintings from this Challenge. So be sure and check back for final thoughts and the fabulous collages of all of the artists!

Leslie, your work simply continues to improve, by leaps and bounds this month. Perhaps it's your inspiration for 30 days, perhaps the push to do a painting every day, or it's simply that you've put in enough time, but whatever the reason your work gets better every day. Congratulations and best wishes. This has been fun even though I didn't get to participate after all because we were in the middle of moving.
