100 days of rabbits (and hares)

 Hello to anyone out there who may still have access to my blog! 

It has been ages since I’ve done this. 

Ages since I created anything on paper too. 

I was approached at the beginning of the week by a dear creative friend who mentioned we should both do The 100 Day Project together this year. I knew immediately that committing to a small creative project daily was just what I needed to get ideas flowing for my pottery (in case you were wondering, it’s the clay that has kept me from paper crafting, designing and blogging for the last 5 years or so).

The possibilities for the project are as endless as your imagination. While I was tempted at first to dive directly into a clay based project for the next 100 days, that wasn’t much of a divergence from what I was already doing. What I really needed was a push to start exploring imagery, sketching, playing with inks, paint, paper. Developing my visual vocabulary if you will. 

For as little as 10-20 minutes a day, for the next 100 days, I will be working on 4.25 x 5.5 inch papers (whatever I find lurking in my stash). Using whatever media I can find on hand, I am going to play.
