I love painting, I started to make a painting every day and showing it to the world on my blog - Dan Young Daily on the 24th of November 2008. Now, after four years and 1461 small paintings, I think it is time to change the pace and make just one big painting in one year.
I will continue the daily tradition of 'Dan Young, Daily' by painting an element of next years painting each day so the picture will slowly build up over the 365 day period. It will be made up of 365 different objects or elements which I will decide upon on the day of painting them. There will be references to my day or things that have happened in the world around me which could be global or local.
Each day I will upload an image of the paintings progress and every now and again you might see a few details and sketches and preparatory drawings along the way, these will form some of the rewards for sponsorship. You will be able to follow my, and the paintings, progress on my blog everyday from the 24th of November 2012.
Your sponsorship will help me provide brushes (it is amazing how quickly they run out when painting everyday!) the canvas, the stretcher and of course the paint for the project as well as the production of the prints.
Rewards
I am making the sketches and preparatory paintings available as rewards for sponsoring the project so if you sponsor me you really will own a piece of the project. I am going to produce a giclee print of the finished painting, which is also one of the rewards.
Not to mention the biggest reward of all which is the warm fuzzy glow you will feel everyday that you follow the daily progress of the painting.
The owner of this project has not made any updates yet.
