365 Days of ACEO Jewelry




Is there a particular painting from the 365 Days of ACEO project that you love but you prefer functional art over a painting to hang on the wall?


If you would like one of my images made into a necklace, bracelet, earrings or ring please contact me. I will be happy to create a custom item for you.

August 10, 2010 - Day 365

The last painting is done. This one is also titled. It is called "On the Outside Looking In". I can't believe that every day for a whole year I have painted something. I feel such a sense of accomplishment. It is great!

Now I have two weeks to get ready for my art show. For those of you who live in the Victoria, BC area the show will be at Serious Coffee in View Royal on August 29, 2010 between 1 pm and 5 pm. All my paintings will be for sale at that time.

Today's painting was another one where the title of the painting had a great deal of influence on the final outcome. This one is called "Alone in a Crowd".

August 8, 2010 - Day 363

I really like the way this one turned out today. The key is to wet the paper just the right amount. Too dry and the colors don't flow but too wet and the colors become faded and weak.

Pegasus for tonight's painting. I feel that I should be writing a lot more in my posts but I am just done with this project. I have put a year into creating these paintings and while it is the best thing that I could have done for my art career it has been a long road to get here.
