Scrapwrap. Start with a household item, stuff in your stash, low technology and creative time.
Life Book 2014 is a year long class. Each week a new teacher, new techniques. Carla Sondheim, this week's teacher, is known for her blobamils. Start with a blob of paint and see what appears. This is some octopus!
Start with a day set aside to do art. Start with good intentions. Then clean out your studio, get involved with HeArt Space on Face Book, spend time with some newly salvaged stuff for cardboard box art, eat, make some appointments, check for email, go for a walk, lose something you've put in the scanner, spend time trying to find it cleaning up as you go, need to go to the Dollar Store, Michaels, feel tired from so much avoiding doing art. That was yesterday. I'm sure today will be completely different.
Make a flower with two pieces of paper and see where it goes next.
Lay down three different kinds of tape. Make sure they overlap. Fill in with pen. Who is waiting to appear?
I'm not even going to tell you what this animal was suppose to be. The task was to draw an animal in one continuous line with your eyes closed. Another was to cut a typed paragraph into words or phrases and compose a story. That was a bit of a bust for me. Instead I wrote part of the story around this guy.
Baruch ata adonai...I am having fun and growing and my mind is in creative places. I am grateful. Amen
What an array of colorful fun items and drawings! The 4 legged animal looks like the starving horses they often find here in NV when their owners neglect them. Pretty good drawing for one continuous line and your eyes closed. Maybe I'll try it just for fun. SL
ReplyDeleteLove those drawings... I think that each of them express something deep and unique. It seems you´re using this year to explore creativity and you´re having much fun! This is so good... indeed creating is a very relaxing and healing activity... I always feel closer to my inner self thanks to it. Have a nice day, dear friend xx
