a painting a day

some might be interested in this. i've decided i need to get back into painting, so i'm forcing myself to do a painting a day. they're all 8x8 and done in corel painter, and i'm only allowing myself 30 minutes to work on each. i don't expect anything awesome to come of them since they're done so quickly but it should prove interesting as time goes on.

here's the first 5, and i'll be adding each to my flickr as i go

let me know what you think, and if you don't think much of it let the thread die

 

Nice, I like the colors

 

The second one is pretty rad.

 

I cant understand Corel Painter for the life of me.... its so confusing . I'll try to learn it someday though. Kudos to you for using the program!

 

I dig the Mothman one (the 2nd one). Very cool! I don't know how anyone can paint on a computer. I just can't do it.

 

I can dig it...!!!

 

Your style kinda reminds me of Neckface (in a good way)

 

great stance for mothman

 

Immediately picked that one as my fav of this batch too. Interesting idea... the countdown has begun to the next new year's eve.

 

a painting a day....i'm just trying to get a drawing a week

 

i'm doing well if i write in my sketchbook once a month

 

I knew a tattooer who did a watercolor painting a day for a year. It was pretty amazing. Wish you all the luck, I am a man of habit and appreciate the commitment.

 

i've never used corel before, but i'm getting the hang of it. that's part of the goal, just to become familiar with the program. i can see the neckface thing. i think it's the teeth

i fell asleep last night so now i have to do 2 tonight

this one is just for you guys

 

Its been a good couple o' days.... you be slackin'

 

They're up on my flickr. I didn't want to big down the board by posting them all here. I still need to upload yesterday's. I'll add it after I do today's painting

 

Ah nice. 1-16-09 is pretty sick

 

corel painter? So are you basically using a mouse and computer program?

 

Im not sure what he's using, but ideally a Wacom tablet is used

 

yeah, i have a wacom that's finally getting used after 3 years.
