I hope that you all had a fantastic New Year's Eve party, celebration, firework extravaganza, donnybrook, quiet glass of sherry, or evening-in watching the telly. However you celebrated, I wish you all a wonderful, happy, relaxing, paint-filled 2018.
And, to get that New Year off to a terrific start, can I reassure you all that you're in the RIGHT PLACE for that! (Sorry, was that a little too loud for some sensitive heads this morning. I'll speak more softly for the rest of this post, I promise.... )
I'm Sidney Roundwood, and I'm the Monday Minion for this year's Challenge. So I shall be here for points scoring and introducing of the fine painting submissions of the "Monday Crowd". And a finer Crowd of painters I cannot imagine. They hail from every corner of the globe, and their brush-skills are a great way to get us all inspired to have at least a few minutes today at the painting table, bench, ledge or desk.
We have some superb Soviets, some fantastic French, and a wondrous purple addition to the flock. And that's just to get us started.....
So, without more waffle from me, let's get on with the show!!!
I‘m somehow missing the band from your oddcasts ;-)
ReplyDeleteWill see if I can get my, errrr, backside up and get my first submission for this year ready.
A Happy New Year to you as well Sidney! It's great to be on board with you!

ReplyDeleteHAPPY NEW YEAR again everyone, and thank you for these kind posts. The Monday Madness has commenced for the "Monday Crowd", and by the time you read this comment, you should be able to see some stonkingly-terrific painting from Challengers far and wide!
ReplyDeleteAnd for anyone in the "Monday Crowd" still brushing away, wondering how long you have to submit a Monday-entry, rest assured, dear Friends, as the doors for Monday will stay open until just after midnight tonight (and a bit longer). HURRAH!!!
Happy New Year Sid! I hope you have a great day of it.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Sid! Have fun minioning!
