Today's is part of a challenge

The watercolor group on redbubble asks for photos for challenges, so there's a photo that wins a challenge and that photo is then a challenge for the watercolorists to paint from. Basically a collective art project.

The painters vote for the photo reference they want to use, and the winning photographer gets the ego boo of the painters drooling over their work and the painters get a work challenge of translating it to their style.

It's not the most creative endeavour as you are working off someone else's photo, but the meta-moebius appeals to my geek bone so I participated in this one.

The challenge is not open for voting for three weeks, but when it is I will post a link to the voting page.

Here is my entry

Yesterday's and Today's

Yesterday I was out, and the daily was little more than a doodled ACEO, I'm not listing it for sale anywhere

The Original is NFS right now, mainly because I am trying to decide on which venue I am moving the originals to, but partially because Coffee Painting is sort of a transient medium and I am worried about color shift and lighfastedness, so I am going to start investigating ways to protect them from deterioration. So to get it good and fresh, a Print is the way to go, there may be some color shift on the original.
