MessageCollection: A Drawing A Day For Good
In 2024 I decided to do the 'Drawing A Day' project where I offer an unframed watercolor and ink artwork for sale each day at the price of $100. The profits are donated to good causes that I choose.
Lately I have been drawing almost every day as a visual meditation. These small works that are usually completed in one sitting are a lovely variation from my normal process where it can sometimes take more than a month to complete a painting.
I draw into the watercolor teaching samplers I have created and collected as they are created as a part of teaching my watercolor workshops. When I sit down to draw I look at the (often) abstract watercolor samplers and 'find' an image in them that means something to me. Because most of my professional paintings take a month or more to create, these drawings, usually done in one sitting, have become a real source of pleasure. I consider them active meditations.
I originally planned to do the project for at least 30 days but I have decided to continue for a while since its still fun. Let's see how long I can keep this up...
Let me know if one of these drawings are meant to be yours. Any works remaining in my inventory when I complete this project will have their price increased to reflect their real market value. If you miss purchasing the 'Drawing A Day for Good'' daily offering, there other pieces from this series that can be seen or purchased from my 'All Watercolor and Ink Collection.'
