Challenge Collage Jan. 2015

The Challenge is over but there was one last chore to do - create a collage of all the paintings I did during the month. This was a new endeavour for me and another learning experience. Thanks to my Challenge and Google+ friend  Sheila for her encouragement. You can see Sheila's challenge work here -   http://www.sheiladelgado.com/. Here is mine!

Challenge Collage Jan. 2015

Following the link to Picmonkey then following directions was reasonably successful although I couldn't figure out how to add text to my collage. This is not a big problem as I can add a caption here - lol

Most of the paintings done during the month have been my attempts at learning Oriental Style painting. I can see my progress and feel I have a reasonably good grasp on the technique. This style will be something I will come back to from time to time over the years.

Check out Leslie's blog to see everyone's collages - http://lesliesaeta.blogspot.ca/ - and also Sea Dean's blog to place your final votes and to see who won when! - http://paintamasterpiece.blogspot.ca/
