"31 Days in the News" (March 2009)

This page features paintings from Dana Ellyn's "31 Days in July" project.
Started in July of 2003 (but in 2009 it was done in March and called "31 Days in the News"), Dana creates one new painting per day in response to the daily news
capturing each day of the month in a total of 31 unique paintings.

In 2009,
Dana Ellyn altered the project slightly.
"31 Days in July" became
"31 Days in the News".

The project returns to
July in 2010.
