Well, I did it! I was shooting for 100 posts in 2010, and this is the one that hits the mark. It seems fitting. (How the hell did I do 171 the first year!? No wonder I slipped to 71 my second year. Evidently consistency is not my strong point in these matters.)
I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who ever visits my blog, jots me thoughtful comments, or just reads these goofy posts in the first place. The internet truly is a strange and wondrous place. I have many friends who've encouraged me, made me smile, and commiserated with me over these many months, and it really does touch my heart.
When I started this blog a few years ago, I did so because I wanted to push myself to paint more, and I have to admit that it always amazes me that anyone has actually come along for the ride! Thank you for all your kindness. I really do appreciate it.
Here's wishing us ALL a beautiful, magical 2011.
Last year, I posted Mairi Campbell's beautiful version of Auld Lang Syne, and this year, it's Dougie Maclean (in honor of my mom and my Scottish grandparents):
Happy New Year, everyone!

Thanks, all! It's not that 100 is so many, I just saw I was close to it, and figured surely I can do a 100 posts if I work at it.
Larry, you've probably had 3x as many! hahaaa!
Jane, thank you--and right back 'atcha.
Carol, you're sweet...x0
Happy new year, dear Sue. You are a wonderful friend and a wonderful artist! I renew my hope that we can get together and sketch in 2011!
We really should, Laura! That would be fun. Once things settle down after these holidays, maybe we can give that a try one weekend. Happy New Year! xo
I raise my cup in a toast to 100 more! (No, I'm not drinking yet, it's decaf coffee!)
Warm and woolly wishes for 2011! xx
I've so enjoyed following your juicy fresh artwork Sue! You have inspired and delighted me with your blog. This version of Auld Lang, is a treasure. Blessing to you in 2011!
quietly watching your blog/100 Paintings and just discovered you are on flickr too. :) Thanks for sharing your talent.

Maybe, but quality is more important than quantity.
So funny, now I want to go check. I have no idea how many I did this year! Although I started a year and a half ago so there is no personal gauge.
I love that version of Auld lang Syne! It has me all weepy! I'd never heard it. Thank you. :)
Blessings and light to you in 2011 and I hope it is full of joy and love for you!
Wow, you have been so busy. A Happy New Year to you and may 2011 carry on being successful for you. Love the illustrations you choose and paint.
Happy New Year! :) beautiful illustrations :)
Same to all of you!
Larry, you have quality--we all know that!
Cobalt--I have some kin dof "gage" that tells me how many I've posted. That's the only reason I know!
Daria and Katie, thanks for visiting! You're sweet!
