A "Journal of Paintings" by Jon Conkey, Themeworks was a "one-year-long" record of my progress in the art of "oil painting", and an attempt to paint 365 paintings in one year. Changing the monthly theme allowed me to focus on subjects I may not have otherwise painted. As an artist, I was looking for discovery and breakthroughs in my works through this daily practice. Themeworks is finished, my new blog is http://studioasturias.blogspot.com, accessed from my profile page.

These paintings were an opportunity for me to learn the art of oil painting,...which is an endless practice.

I love the landscapes
Hi Shant, My landscapes are getting ready to go under construction here pretty soon, am really working hard on figuring out what it is I like about landscapes; understanding the elements that attract me to them. Recently, I have been influenced by Paul Butzi's work; he is a photographer working with silver glass gelatin prints. He is letting me see in black and white what I want to paint in color.
