Today is my Art Day!

I'm dedicating this day of rest to not shop for deals but to make art. Whether it's fractals, anything digital, doodles, or painting; I'm surrounding myself with creative energy. I might even write today. I'm so thankful for my gifts. Today, I'm showing my appreciation by expressive for as long as I can.

AEDM Update

I can't believe it's been a little over a week since the last AEDM and NaNoJoumo update. I'm not ready to post any images. Maybe, that'll be an event for Thanksgiving. I've just finished two works for a Small Works Exhibition and I'm pooped. Guess I'll go doodle away to relax my mind.

AEDM/NaNoJoumo Days 8-14

I've missed some days, but I have made up in different ways for AEDM and NaNoJoumo.  Here's what I have from Days 8-14 that could fit on the scanner. Two of my pieces were too big. You'll have to wait till I get batteries for my camera to see those (Virtue and Forge). And as last roundup, all of my cues were from Dawn at D'blogala.

Day 14 Creation- PORTRAY

Who shall I portray myself to be today?

Have you ever felt the need to put on a different face for a different crowd?

Day 13 Creation -MYSTIQUE

What lies within the forest?

Day 13 Creation #2- ESSENCE was the word for Day 12, but I was out and about.

Dance freely and smell the essence of life.

Day 11 Creation- REVERIE

All the things I daydream about captured in symbols/words:

Love, Peace, Money, Condo with a water and city view, A happy earth

Day 10 Creations -LIBERTY

I took the liberty to modify one of my fractals in various ways. 

DAY 9's Creation is absent, but it had a dear message to share.

FORGE

Forge ahead my dear soldier! Victory is almost near.

Day 8 Creation- The word for the day was VIRTUE.

Too bad you can't see my virtuous woman.

However, here's my doodle while I was in the coffee shop.

NaNoJoumo & AEDM Days 4-7

Hey Everyone!

Here's the roundup of ink on paper for NaNoJoumo and AEDM. These are from Day 4 up to now. I took my cues from NaNoJoumo to keep me moving.

Day 7 Creation- The word of the day is MOMENT.

I'm in the moment of speaking more lovingly. This list is just a start.



Day 6 Creation- Esoteric is the word and hearts and spirals abound.

Day 5 Creation- I found EQUANIMITY to come right on time.

I feel more balanced now. Thank goodness.



Day 4 Creation- The word of the day was QUARTER.

I thought, "Wouldn't it be cool if quarters got another makeover?

Let's have pretty pictures and illustrated faces on them."



AEDM and NaNoJoumo

I didn't get around to posting last night, so here are my creations for AEDM and NaNoJoumo from the past three days. I haven't done anything for Day 4, so you'll have to wait till tomorrow for that piece.

Day 3 Creation

"Good Day"-This really how I was feeling yesterday, full of bounce and life.

Day 2 Creation #2 -The colors were orange and turquoise.

I don't know why it looks brown and pale blue.

The message is "Regardles of whether or not you think you are

experiencing hell or heaven, God is ALWAYS around.

He travels along the journey with you."

Day 2 Creation #1- The message is "Shine your light in the midst of darkness".

Day 1 Creation- It's quite literal.

I was writing by candlelight when this came to mind.

In the dark

waiting for light

Just about to come

in a few hours.

How long can I wait?

Be patient my dear

the Lord has said to me.

I will Father.

Art Everywhere This Month

November is a special time for artists. Currently, I'm participating in a few projects which some of you may be partaking in as well. I've committed myself to creating art daily for Art Every Day Month, which is hosted by Leah at Creative Everyday. I'm also putting pen to paper and whatever else comes to mind for NaNoJoumo being hosted over at D'blogala. Whew! Haven't posted pics yet. Maybe, this evening it will happen. Almost forgot to mention that I'm collecting doodles for The Doodle Daily's World Doodle Challenge. Warren says, "Keep them coming!" I will indeed. These projects are just what I need, especially after an art slump.
