Day 11
Hello and welcome, so if you are new here this is part of the 100 day project I am working on. You pick whatever you want to do the whole idea is in the end you will have learned something and made a new habit for yourself. Plus it’s creative and we all need creativity wholeheartedly!!! It can be as simple as a small sketch or a scribble anything you want. If you have viewed the last 10 days you can see it Days 1-10 the ones you are looking at currently at days 11-20
Day 13 Here for the Craterellus foetidus I had decided to add a spotted skunk.
Day 14
This one has so much meaning, Skylar had spent a lot of time with me during 2022. She even went to school here while mom was deployed to Korea. We had bought a rabbit at the state fair and we would go on walks every afternoon. Fall was upon us and the sky was golden pink and purples. The leaves had newly falling and oh the beauty of it just poured out of me unto this painting. I had to be grandma and mom while she was here and it was a struggle at times. She was in the fourth grade then. If she didn’t get her way she would get upset. As with grandma she was used to getting her way. Easy peasy. Well I want you to know I miss those times we had together as it was special so very special. I enjoyed her company and the games we played board games etc. we did a lot then. Value every minute in your life because once that minute is gone it’s gone!!! You will want to relive it once more. This is so true.
Day 15 these are very small but I added the pileated woodpecker.
Day 16 when I was painting the background in the green I saw the green man show up. So I painted him. He was stopping by to make sure I had painted nature correctly.
Day 17 Shrimp or the woods doesn’t taste like shrimp but has the texture of shrimp. This one I painted without adding a sketch. It just flowed out and I did it while we were on a Zoom call with our weekly group chats for the 100 Day Project.
Day 18 this was right out of my brain as we have seen these many times over and the first time I saw one with snow on it, it was breathtaking beauty. See pictures below.
Day 19 Here I was enjoying just playing the Reishi in watercolor. It’s such a beautiful mushroom.
Day 20 Here is day 20 this one I actually started out total different like I was in charge and next thing I looked and it wasn’t going to work. My brain was somewhere else while I was painting as I looked and it was way off on perspective. I was going to let it slide but I couldn’t I had to fix it. So I tore a page out of the book (which I like never do) so I cut out the lacquered mushrooms off the stump I messed up on (it was already painted) I added a sweet little deer like the ones that keep coming to my yard. They come for the apples and the birdseed. When Brooks and Baker come over they ask for apples and then when they are done they tell me to throw it out for the deer. It’s the cutest.

| Here is the picture of the Ganoderma applanatum I found in our woods several years back. I can spot these even riding down the roads. I hope you enjoyed the second 10 paintings of the 100 day project. I have enjoyed the process and I feel a progression in just the 20 days. I made hamburgers last night and potatoes for dinner and Bruce says it’s always good when you cook. It’s hard on me so I don’t do as much as I used to. Much love and respect, Good Vibes, Dawn Gallop |
