$hit tons of glitter

About 2 years ago, I did a 30 paintings in 30 days challenge and I absolutely hated it. I wasn't really very orgaized for it, and I over thunk each painting. For almost 6 months now I have had a bad artists block. I wasn't painting at all & what I did paint, I hated & couldn't finish anything. At the encouragement of one of my art friends, she said I should do the 30 in 30 again to help get out of the rut. 

This time around, I decided I wasn't going to over think any of it & I wasn't going to care if anyone likes it or if it was "arts & crafty"....because let's face it, I AM arts & crafty. I also decided smaller is better & I will make them big later. This time I'm focusing on all my loves: patterns, glitter, metallics, Glitter, sequins...more glitter again...& whatever the hell else I decide is awesome. 

So here is week 1:
