I have all the paintings I have done so far, which is 28, laid out on my living room floor. Today’s post is the only the 19th on this blog because I started painting a week before creating this blog and there’s been a couple of days when I painted more than one piece.   I put them in order as best as I could from earliest to latest (amazingly enough I have a hard time remembering the order of the earliest work). Seeing them together and in chronological order, it is really evident that I have improved as a painter.  Over time, I have gotten better at working with this small size and square format as far as composition, but also I think I’m learning to paint faster and use the qualities of acrylic paints to my advantage, which in turn allows me to paint more intricate details.

Anyway, here is a photo of all 28 in order. Each column represents one week from top to bottom. Three more columns + one (22 paintings) to go! The ones that have not made it on the blog yet were either not my favorite choices or I feel they still need a little work. 

And for today’s post, I painted “Pinky Swear” suggested by my good friend Cristina. Thanks for the idea, Cristina!
