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.

# 167 Humboldt Coastline
October's theme will be "long-view landscapes", I have a tendency to avoid big vistas due to the overwhelming information to take in...if they start to get to me, I will occasionally put up a portrait. Northern California has many miles of beautiful rugged coastlines to paint. Oil on masonite 10" x 15". JLC
