30 in 30 in 30 Day 5

Leslie Saeta's 30 in 30 challenge... this is my effort for day 5. My challenge paintings are all going to be created in 30 strokes.... which at first look seems like a really quick process... but I'm finding that not true.  I'm trying to be so much more mindful of each mark. I'm an impulsive gal, so this is a BIG effort for me. Slow down, be purposeful....and remember to count.

Perfect way to describe the challenge of 30 strokes, Lauren. I am impulsive, too, and tend to go over and over, etc. But you are nailing it! It's hard to believe this bouquet is only 30 strokes. Beautiful!
So glad you're in the challenge.

Thanks Laurie! I recommend this exercise...for anyone, but especially for us impulsives. (don't arrest me grammar police!) I'm finding it really difficult. I have double the amount of paintings... that are failures at 30 strokes but will be fine as underpaintings. :)
