- I intended to be faithful and blog at least once a month, maybe more!
- I intended to be a whirlwind of creativity, madly clipping and doing collage, painting up a storm and sketching everything I saw.
- I intended to make time for more art...to find the slivers of the day and fill them with color.
- I intended... I intended... I intended.
And I guess I did some of it. Well, not the blogging part, which apparently I'm pretty miserable at!
I participated in a tag exchange. Mine is the fish.
I spent an art-filled, snowy weekend in Mineral Point, Wisconsin staying in a historic home with my sisters and Pam. Here's an example of the exquisite corpse books we all worked on.
I made a lot of postcards to mail off to people I've only met virtually through the IUOMA (International Union of Mail Artists).
I redecorated my bedroom, painting the walls with exactly the color of periwinkle I'd been longing for, and finally adding the vintage chandelier. Well, I didn't do the painting, Pam did between cooking meals for her blog!
I went to Taos for a luxurious week of art - making a sketchbook then doing my best to fill it with paintings and sketches. All thanks to one of my fav people, Jill K. Berry.
I've even sketched a bit as part of the Sketchbook Challenge. I haven't kept up with every monthly challenge, but there's still time, right?
I suppose I haven't been the slacker I sometimes imagine myself to be. And I have the good fortune to work in a creative job with creative people surrounding me. I did help to launch a new magazine these past months - I guess that counts especially since I get paid to do it!
And it's only April, right?
