A new day, a new challenge

I am, as they say, up for a challenge. 
Leslie Saeta's "30 paintings in 30 days" challenge, to be exact.
Never having attempted to commit to daily painting, this should be interesting. The first order of business is to create a blog- that is one of Leslie's requirements for participation. Day 1 of the challenge is on the second of January, so with luck I'll have this sorted out in time. 
Stay tuned.... 
and send any web-minded college students my way. 
I'm gonna need all the help I can get.
