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.

Daniel Tremblay said...: I really like this painting. The light is wonderful!

I also like #223 (School bus waiting) - very impressionistic - and #222 (Night Tracks) very much.

It is a pleasure to look at your work. I feel I will learn something by following your journey ...; 2:40 PM
