100 PAINTINGS IN 100 DAYS #100

"Lapie Lakes, The South Canol, Yukon"
6"x8", Acrylic
SOLD
"What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from."
T.S.Eliot

I have reached my goal: 
100 Paintings in 100 Days  is now a done deal!  
I decided to finish with what I started with which is the South Canol.  I have really loved doing this project and I want to take a deep breath and just be in this moment and feel that I have accomplished something.   I have had mixed feelings about it being done; I can hardly believe it because you'd think I'd be relieved that it's done but I feel a little sad. 
It may be an ending but it is also a beginning, 
on that note I will say good night!

    Very cool!

    I will have to see how much disposable income I have otherwise I may try to paint some myself using your paintings as a template.

    Congratulations Jackie! Since Christmas I've kind of fallen off the map. Beautiful work and I'm super inspired by you creating a goal and finishing it. You've set the tone for artists to push their boundaries and challenge themselves. As a fellow artist (in a different medium-writing) I am super excited to push my boundaries right now and get writing. Take care!
