It's going to be a Project Runway ...
September has always traditionally been fashion month. And in the spirit of creativity I am have chosen my theme for this year's Challenge from my favorite TV show ... Project Runway. 

Every day this month I will be painting an abstract painting inspired by one of the dresses designed on the show Project Runway. There are hundreds (actually over a thousand) to choose from and wow ... there are some iconic ones to choose from! For those of you that watch the show, you know what I mean. In the past I have used many of the "looks" designed on the 14 seasons of Project Runway as inspirations for my paintings. So now I am in the process of selecting thirty more dresses to inspire me! Some are gorgeous and some, well, are scary. But they are going to be great inspirations for abstract paintings.

By the way, I am still looking for more dresses from the show. If you have any suggestions please leave a comment here! I am still looking ...

What a fun idea!! love it. Have not joined yet because i am still looking for a theme - planning to do abstracts. Any suggestions?
I was thinking water as a theme but i have done that before as it is overused. Maybe sunsets, maybe vacations? Please help.

I have been running a Thirty Days of Drawing and my theme has been women's faces. I am planning to use the drawings as ideas for my own paintings during this 30 days.. excited about this and hope to be inspired... This kind of thing always reinforces my own painting practice. Joy
