30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge

So, because I don't already have more than enough to do, I have accepted another 30 paintings challenge!! Well, it's a really good way to make myself sit in the studio and paint. Deadlines, you know? So here is my first post.....from a photo taken by my daughter at the Portland Rose Garden last April. You noticed it's not a rose did you? Right, roses don't bloom in Portland in April we discovered. But the azaleas and rhododendrons were fabulous! this one is a small 4 x 6 pastel on sanded cardstock.
