Day 24: 30 in 30: Every and Anything Series

"Miriam's Portrait" Pastel on Illustration Board, 8"x 10", Original Painting NOT FOR SALE

Hello everyone! It's January 24, 2015 and today is Day 24 of my 30 Painting's in 30 Days Painting Challenge!

My theme for this 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge is "Every and Anything" and over the next 6 days I will be painting every and anything from landscapes, to pet portraits; from people portraits, to still lifes; and so forth! (To learn more about why I chose this theme click HERE.)
 
This is a pastel portrait of my little girl, Miriam, who is seven. She is the fraternal twin of my other daughter, Faith, whose portrait I posted yesterday.

I don't think that I'm quite satisfied with how my three little girls portraits have come out over the last few days. I think that I'll spend a little more time working on them and then when I am content, I plan to hang them in our living room, maybe. Or perhaps another room in the house? . . . Hmmm . . . Not sure which room they'd look best in, but I'll keep thinking about it :)

Anyway, that's all for now from the Blog of SamDoum Art!' Til later fellow art lovers! Take care, and God bless!

Day 23: 30 in 30: Every and Anything Series

"Faith's Portrait" Pastel on Illustration Board, 8"x 10", Original Painting NOT FOR SALE

Hello everyone! It's January 23, 2015 and today is Day 23 of my 30 Painting's in 30 Days Painting Challenge!

My theme for this 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge is "Every and Anything" and over the next 7 days I will be painting every and anything from landscapes, to pet portraits; from people portraits, to still lifes; and so forth! (To learn more about why I chose this theme click HERE.)

Wow! Only a week more to go in this challenge! I'm determined not to miss any more days so I painted ahead, in case if things get too busy and I need a back up painting.

This is a pastel portrait of my little girl Faith, who is seven. She is the twin of my other daughter Miriam, whose portrait I will post tomorrow. They are fraternal twins so they look a little different from each other which means tomorrows painting will feature another little girl (my daughter) with different features than this one (my other daughter).

Yep, it's true. As I wrote in yesterdays blog post, I've missed several days during this challenge but I'm back! And I'm mixing things up a bit in this challenge with a portrait of my youngest daughter Sephora.
