100 day project week 5 March 14 to March 20









 It is hard to believe that it is week 5 of this challenge.  I have been keeping up and I am really happy about that.  This week I zeroed in on mark making.  What constitutes marks?  Lines, circles, words, small dots, you name it.  I made a card using music notes and they made great and intriguing marks.  

One thing I have to remember is that I am doing this to grow, so I cannot worry about perfection or coming up with something "great" to get comments.  Rather, I have to let my mind run free and develop ideas and a catalog that I can use to learn new techniques and grow.  Of course this is easier said than done.  You know how the ego is, but is my goal.  We will see if I how I feel at the end of 100 days.

Will I be more comfortable being vulnerable?  We shall see


until next week.......pilgrim

100 Day Project Week 4 - March 6 to March 13

 








This week I used stencils to help design the cards created.  They are definitely experiments; but were so much fun to do.  I have many stencils I have never used.  It is time to figure out ways to make them my own.  Cut them up, use bits and pieces, whatever feels good is what I will do.  

until next week.....pilgrim

100 Day Project Week 3 Feb. 27 to March 5 - Collage






 


Wee 3 of 100 day project has been completed.  This week was dedicated to collage cards.  I have to admit that I had some trouble with this because I wanted the cards to have a painterly look but with collage and cutouts.  I think I achieved it better on some than others.  The butterflies and birds actually look like paints but they are all cut and past items.  

Still thinking about a theme for week 4 which starts tomorrow, so I better think fast; however, I think I have it worked out with a smidge of hesitancy.  We shall see how it turns out.

Until next week.......pilgrim
