30 Days Has September - 30 daily painting challenge

I am taking part in a challenge being hosted by Leslie Seata, to paint a daily painting each day in September.

I am not organised at all for this as I have had family staying all summer. Now that we have our house back (lol) I hope to get my self organised today. I am not sure yet if I will do themed paintings or just what takes my fancy on the day. I may also do some that I can add to my 101 garden paintings which I still have to catalogue. I am not even sure of how many I painted, but I do not that as time went on I improved greatly and lost my fear of 'just going for it'.
It was fun to do, although frustrating at times.
Here are a couple of my garden 101 paintings

Loose and Lively Iris daily paintings

Here are two of my plein aire iris paintings. These were painted end of March/beginning of April. I'm falling a bit behind again with my postings.

It's such a lovely time of year when the irises start appearing in the garden. It's a sure sign things are warming up. The vivid blue of these irises really gives the garden a lift, when the daffodils and tulips have finished flowering and before other plants decide to make an appearance.

I have another two irises to post tomorrow.
