Daily Paintings by Peggy Thatch Sibley---- I try to do a daily painting each day but occasionally miss that goal. I paint in oil, acrylic and watercolor so my paintings will vary in medium. I paint small and large. I paint landscapes, doing plein air when the weather cooperates, stilllifes, florals, people and pets, and most any subject that inspires me that day.

This is the second painting I did of Hog Hill Katie. I sort of worked on them at the same time up to a point, then finishing the other one first as I liked it better. But this one was fun also. I hadn't painted in oils for some time so it was so fun. I fought it for awhile, due to the slow drying, after using acrylic and watercolor when I have had time to paint. They dry so fast and I can get something done so much quicker. When painting time is at a premium, that is a good thing. This is also a 16x20 oil and is unframed at this time. When I paint almost the same painting twice, the first one is usually the best. Guess maybe I lose the interest and excitement on a second try???
