10 Minute Challenge

I decided to participate in my first online challenge.  Carol Marine is an amazing artist and the challenge she posted on http://www.dailypaintworks.com/ this week was to do one picture several time - allowing yourself only ten minutes for each square.  Ten minutes!  This was a lot more challenging than I thought it would be.  For example, the paint didn't have time to dry so colors were blending together that weren't supposed to with some pretty ugly results.  But it was a great exercise and a lot of fun.  I learned a lot and will definitely do this again.  Thanks Carol!
