Urban Landscape Day 5

Off to a slow start. This is day 5 of the drawing challenge and this is drawing number 3 but really the first of the series I intend to do for this challenge. Yesterday I went on a photo shoot around my new home town of Nashua, N.H. I came back with over 150 photos. This is a city of mills, churches and highways with a lovely river - the Nashua - running through it all. For the rest of the month I HOPE to do a drawing from this series most days. I've already missed some days so I'll do two on days that I can. This first piece is titled "Urban Landscape". A lot of the surrounding area looks like this. I love to draw the lines created by the telephone wires and poles. So I find beauty even along the highway.

I'll be posting this blog to Facebook as will many friends who are also participating in the drawing challenge. Here are the names of some of them - you can find their contributions by going to their facebook page. If you're not already friends with them I'm sure they'd be happy to add you. So check out the pages for Caren-Marie Michel, Nita Casey, Helene Levasseur and find some very interesting drawings.

November Drawing Challenge Day 1

OK. Today is day 1 of the November drawing challenge. One drawing a day for 30 days. So today I cheated a little. I finished up 2 ACEO drawings that I had started in the summer. The reason for the challenge is to get everyone drawing again so I guess this qualifies as fulfilling the meaning of the challenge. These are both pen and ink drawings with watercolor on an ACEO trading card, 2.5" x 3.5". One is of my favorite location - Pemaquid_ the other of sailing on the coast of Maine. They are presented in white mats that also serve as notecards and an envelope is included. They can be purchased on my website or in my Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/kathleendaughan

Daily Drawing Challenge November 2014

My painting buddy Caren Marie Michel has issued a Facebook challenge for a drawing a day for the month during the month of November 2014. I am going to join in and I will post the daily paintings on this blog. as well as on Facebook of course. They will also be available in my Etsy shop: www.kathleendaughan.etsy.com. The drawing pictured here is from a previous challenge and is of Winslow Park in Freeport, Maine. The drawings this time will be from a variety of places. I'll choose a favorite spot each day.

First Friday, September 5, 2014

The Pastel Show at N.W. Barrett Gallery on Market St in Portsmouth, N.H. opens Friday, Sept 5, 2014. Opening reception from 5-7. I hope you will join me and 4 other painters from the Pastel Painters of Maine for a spectacular pastel show. See you there.

I'll be going to California shortly to paint for a few months. Stay tuned for daily paintings of California. Mt Tam 4 was painted on a previous trip. You can see this painting on my website: www.kathleendaughan.com. Click on the portfolio link and then choose the watercolor section.

Daily Paintings on Display

This is the display of daily paintings on the wall of my studio. Daily paintings are so versatile. They can be hung as small groups when you start your collection and later as a whole wall area as your collection grows. This group of paintings can be seen individually on my website www.kathleendaughan.com. Just click on the portfolio link on the left and then on the daily paintings section. Better still, stop by the studio and see them for yourself.

March Facebook Painting Challenge

This month I'm participating in the Facebook painting challenge. My personal goal is to finish as many paintings as possible. Most of them will be posted on my website rather than on this page. So hop over there and click on the portfolio link. So far the paintings have been watercolor pieces so click on watercolor to see these particular pieces. www.kathleendaughan.com will get you there.

This piece is "Maine Coast", 4.5 x 7

Gilsland Watercolors

Two more watercolor sketches from the Gilsland Farm series. These are on deckled handmade paper. They can be purchased from my website: www.kathleendaughan.com

Watercolor Sketches

Gilsland Winter 1, 4x6, watercolor

Some of my daily paintings for the near future will be watercolor sketches made at Gilsland Farm Audubon Sanctuary in Falmouth, Maine. It's another one of my favorite spots and I've decided to paint a 4 season series of the meadow. I live near by and will make these watercolor sketches as often as I can get over there in preparation for the oil paintings. I'll post them here and on the website. The one above is obviously the first in this series. I'll still be doing the art squares and I'll post those here as well.

Daily Paintings start again in January

These are 3 daily paintings that I finished in December. They are framed together as a triptych and can be seen at Fore Street Gallery in Portland, or you can see them on line on my website: www.kathleendaughan.com. Otherwise I've been busy moving into my new studio at Lucid Stage. I'm all set now to start up the daily paintings in mid January. Stay tuned. Meanwhile you can see a number of the daily paintings over on the website. Go to the portfolio link and then scroll down to daily paintings. Wishing everyone happy holidays and a wonderful New Year.
