Paint Party Friday: Week 45, Year 4 Check-In

Welcome to Week 45, Year 4 of Paint Party Friday!

This week, the random.org number generator chose # 21 - Clare Lloyd.  Last week, Clare shared a glamorous goddess that appeared on the first page of her 2015 Documented Life Project.  We love the quote that accompanies her bold beauty, and hope you all have plans of your own that include lots of painting (and sharing at PPF)!

As always, please make sure to use your post URL address NOT your blog home page URL address as there are many late visitors who get confused as to which post is for PPF when they arrive (after Friday) at your website. If you are unfamiliar with Mr. Linky, an explanation of how this tool works can be found on Week 1 and Week 2 posts.

Wishing you a perfectly planned & paint filled week!

Paint Party Friday: Week 44, Year 4 Check-In

Welcome to Week 44 of Year 4 at PPF!

This week the random number generator chose #4 - Christine. (Hmmm - lots of 4s in this post...odd!) It's great to see Christine's number chosen. She has been with us since the beginning and has always been such a lovely, creative and friendly painter and partyer with PPF. This week she brings a watercolor pencil painting of canoes on a mountain lake to us and to her almost finished art journal. (What a fabulous feeling that is to finish a journal! Always so great to look back on all the wonderful creations!)

Paint Party Friday: Week 43, Year 4 Check In

Happy New Year and welcome to week 43, year 4 of Paint Party Friday!  We hope you've had a wonderful holiday season and that your new year is filled with health, happiness, and LOTS of paint!

Appropriately enough, the random.org number generator chose a post titled "New Beginnings" (#24 - TruffleArt).  In her post, Telva shares some beautiful and vibrant paintings of things she wouldn't normally do.  Please stop by her blog to see the other paintings and to find out where she'd like to go next with her painting.

"The way we learn and grow is by stepping outside the box and reaching for new heights."
