Monthly Retrospective: November 2024

by

I got my next painting area up and running quickly after moving. I painted less than in October because I actually had things to do, like starting a new job, but I managed to still do a lot, including participating in Magrish’s annual sky challenge and rejoining Claire Giordano’s Adventure Art Academy!

Here are the paintings by category.

I painted these from my own photos from around eastern Massachusetts, including Stow, Cambridge, Somerville, and Medford.
