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.

Since then I had an Y1i art showing. Entered a couple of pieces into the state fair and thrown myself primarily into paper cutting (when work wasn't sucking up my time and energy).
I'm starting to miss the one eyed creatures.
I drew a picture on my white board in class last week and the person (me) had TWO eyes! One of my older students noted that it did and "see, you can draw two eyed things, they just need glasses.
I'd like to pick this blog up again, but in a new direction. Which direction? I'm not sure. As reevaluate my life, I need to figure out what works in this area.
So stay tuned! Summer break is 5 weeks away and hopefully I'll be inspired before then to hop back on!
Peace and fabulousness! (I miss typing that :)

Day 156 (1287)
At 5:05:05 this morning I created this creature. So I have been making something for 5 years, 5 months, 5 hours, 5 minutes and 5 seconds. Whew! I am taking a break. I have spent the past 2 months once again making things for people at work and having to put my own personal creativity aside. So it has felt like I'm just phoning it in. That's why I am pausing my blog. I feel good about it and this end of the year week has been busy and I know this is the right choice. I'm not sure how long the pause is, but I will be creating in different ways. To you who have went on this journey with me, Thank you. I deeply thank you. You are the reason I kept it going so long. I will post more things and am starting a weebly site. When I get back on the saddle I hope to have you by my side once again.
You are amazing.
Peace and fabulousness.
