The 100 Day Project continues! For 100 days, I am doing a small collage, 8.5 x 5.5 inches, in a wire-bound sketchbook. Why? Because: I want to. It takes discipline and follow-through, which are habits I want to foster. I love working in a series – doing lots of things on a theme. I feel […]

For many people, documenting it means posting online, especially […]
It’s time for the postcard swap again! I haven’t done it for a couple years and missed it. This is always fun. Kat Sloma, over at Kat Eye View, is hosting the swap just like she does every year. The idea is this: we print up postcards with our art on them, write a little note […]
