Dan Young, Daily

Welcome one and all to my new project. I intend to make a painting a day. Inspired by lots of the enthusiastic daily painters I have found online particularly Duane Kieser. I aim to invigorate my painting practice by becoming a slave to paint again. If anyone finds this little section of the interweb and becomes interested in the paintings most will be for sale through ebay so grab a bargain!

Today is the first day of the project so, I need to get started making lots of supports to paint on! I tend to work on canvas, board and primed paper and I anticipate the paintings that appear here will be relatively small, no bigger than 20cm x 30cm and probably smaller.

okay here we go.....
