Here is a favorite spot of mine near Ocate, NM. With the month near half over, I need to think about doing some night scenes (this month's theme), the night skies have been fairly dark and nothing has jumped out at me to paint. This morning however, I awoke at 3:30am and watched the thin cresent moon rise over the horizon soon followed by the sun and her pink and red storm sky. I realized that the morning has everything and more than I had ever imagined. Oil 6.00" x 8.00" email jon@jonconkey.com to buy.
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.
