36 Solemn Moonrise (SOLD)

Artist Duane Kaiser, who paints on a very regular basis and was the originator of "A Painting A Day", is known to paint on leftover canvas or board pieces. He titles his little gems "Oddments" and they are barely over 3 inches in size. I just love that term, and love his paintings. They are quite detailed little studies of the objects he paints from life - just on a much smaller scale.

I think I'd have to get a few more small brushes to get any more detailed or intricate in these small studies. So for today, this is about all the effort I was able to expend towards this daily painting challenge. It was a day that didn't afford much time for painting due to cleaning and organizing the studio and then hosting Art Walk from 5-9 p.m.
