Art-a-Day: Mandalas

I was looking at assemblages online and saw a collage done in a paint tin. I had an old one so I first used alcohol inks but didn't like the effects. I added vintage-looking washi tape and because my art studio is such chaos, I started putting in circular shapes and I liked it so I kept looking for circle shapes in various boxes and jars. It includes rusted tools, money and buttons as well as I'm not sure what it is! This looks nothing like the one online which is good! The moral of the story is: don't clean up your art space unless you can't walk in it!!!!

Welcome to Art-a-Day!

Care To Join Us?

The idea is to challenge yourself creatively every day for the month of January. Wherever you do your work, however you do your work, just show up every day and do it. It’s that simple. How to challenge yourself is up to you – but do challenge yourself & share your experiences here on this blog. This is a fun & powerful experience if you allow it.

-Show up.
-Trust the process.
-Share it.

Do I Have to Blog Everyday?

No. Though it's a good thing, a fun thing, and highly encouraged at least now and again. Some participation lets us know you are on board, inspires others and may be used to determine eligibility for inclusion in a show (if we have one).

Do I Make Art Everyday?

Yes. That is the commitment.

Art-a-Day is self-regulating

It is very loose; however diligence is expected because that's what makes it expansive -for you. That is, you commit yourself in whatever fashion you can to "doing" art every day. Add to your piece each day or create something new, it’s up to you. It might mean folding a paper napkin while you are on an airplane flying across the globe because that's all you could do that day - but it was intentional.

Questions?

Still have questions or want to join the challenge? Don't hesitate to ask - you can add a comment to one of my posts.

Joyful creating!
