I took on the challenge of being creative at least once a day for the year 2012 using color. Looking back at all the pieces from 2012, I realized the ones that stood out and gave me the most joy, were the creatures (sad frog, the monsters,...) 2013 was the year of creatures. This year (2014) I'm continuing with the creatures but making them around the theme of children's stories/nursery rhymes. When all the characters are finished, I'll assemble them into a story picture.

Day 116: Orange
Happy Wednesday! Considering I bolted up wide awake at 1:30AM realizing how much I have to get done in the next two weeks, I'm feeling relatively calm today or it could be I'm just way tired or in a state of dillusion or am I still alseep! :D
One thing I'm finding is no matter how crazy busy the day is or seems, doing this daily project ends up being a centering time. I thought for sure when I started this that weeks like these would be even more stressful with an added project. The exact opposite has happened. Being creative every day for a little bit or longer period of time is calming. It might be that it gives the left side of the brain time to process everything while the right side isn't being ignored nor neglected. A yin and yang time (or is it ying and yang? zing and zang? these are question asked by my inner blond/ my true self).
I did a simple flower out paper today. One of my classes is a bit behind on a project, so I worked on the flower inbetween rounds around the room while they finished up theirs.
Mum is doing well. Talked to her yesterday and she got home and is slowly feeling better! Yippee! She says " Thank you to all for their thoughts and prayers!" I echo that thought!
Peace and Fabulousness!

Great news about your mum Dave! She must be very happy to be home again.
ReplyDeleteI love your swirling paper flower designs.
Are you doing yellow next month?
Thanks Frances! She is so glad to be home and done with the surgeries. She can't wait to feel more energy so she get some stuff done (She's not a big fan of just laying around - that's where I get it from!)
DeleteYes Yellow starts on Tuesday! I'm I bit nervous about doing 2 months of yellow!! Think I'm going to have to dig deep in the land of creativity for that color. : D
Have a great day!
