Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

Another webwsite I vist has a monthly landscape challenge. Various members post photos and everyone picks one and does a painting based on the picture they pick.
This painting was for their December Challange. Its oil on board 16 x 20.
Sadly, I wont be particpating in the poetry, I havent written anything
in quite a while. I hope everyone has a Happy Holiday and a prosperous New Year.
Now that we made it past the Myan Apocalypse, its all down hill from here.

I can listen to the sound ... ! beautiful! & gracias to you!

Beautiful!

We've had Image Jams which were similar, where people painted or drew the photos posted. I like the idea of having a monthly challenge.

I'd love to visit the site you go to! Could you share a link either here on this thread or by private message? I'd be interested in taking part in such a challenge.

I love your painting.

Sure Doreen,

The main site is Wet Canvas and the monthly challenge takes place in their Landscape Forum.
Ive had a hard time finding it in the past so here is a link directly to the forum. The challenges start around the first week of each month with a member posting a number of pictures that people pick from. Heres the link

Another site you might be interested in that I havent competed in yet the virtual paintout.
What they do here pick a location somewhere in the world. Then you use google maps street view and explore the location and pick a street view and paint it. Heres a link to them
