I'm so fortunate to have so many incredibly talents friends that are artists and designers. One of my friends from Blenda Studio introduced me to the #100DayProject. This is a Painting A Day for 100 Days and posted on Instagram. Anyone can jump in with this and it doesn't have to be painting. It can be anything creative; photography, sketches, pottery, jewelry etc.

If you didn't already know this, I've been writing and illustrating a book so this was great motivation to get my illustrations completed as well as honing my skills. I can not tell you how much I have appreciated the support! I decided to do a Give Away of one of these first six paintings. So if you are on Instagram, follow me there @MariRDesign & tag a couple friends. It's that easy! You might win one of these and it might be one that shows up in print too! I'd love to see you there!! Have a terrific weekend!!!
