On this blog I will post one painting a day for one year. I am not an artist nor pretend to know much about art, I am merely a lover of art and want to share with you the paintings I like. Since the painting of the day has to match the date on the calendar, I will mainly go by date of birth or death of the artist. This gives me an opportunity to discover new artists as well. For the introduction to this blog, please read my first post of December 31, 2011. ~Enjoy! Laurie~
