As I hop around blogland - I am always in awe at the talent and willingness to share techniques! I just received a print from Kristin Dudish and the package was a gift in and of itself. The print is a gift so I can't share it because it is not being given for awhile yet. Anyways, her note card envelope - the notecard, the stickers...I'm ordering again just for the extras I get to keep!!! Her button is on my sidebar - please check her out if you haven't already.
Kristin and many others I check in on have been brave enough to take on the 30 days of painting...I'm not ready for that BUT have decided to produce a piece of artwork each week. So today I have started a piece to complete by next Tuesday...that means I have to work on it at least a couple times throughout the week. I am calling it flight to freedom...
So for March I am putting myself to the task of five for five... each day 5 things to complete... 1 mile on the bike, 1 mile on the treadmill, my physical therapy exercises for my legs, arms (my son is getting married in May and my dress is sleeveless - what was I thinking), tackle a process on an art piece; and OH YES, for my husband, I shall tackle a pile each day! So, 5 of 5 for the next 31 days... WOW, talk about pressure.
A couple more things to add - after visiting Jul's Art Niche (check out her altered metal necklace - oh-la-la) she announced a great giveaway at http://thefrugalcrafter.wordpress.com/ it is a MUST CHECK OUT. I did not know you could blend markers like that!!! There are 3 different Promarker sets to choose from - I would pick the Vivid set to win!!!! The demo video is super helpful!
Wish me luck! with all my projects -cheers - go color something!!!

A painting a day boggles my brain. I like your 5 for 5 idea. Looking forward to seeing your artwork!

Good Luck with your goals, even 5 for 5 sounds overwhelming to me these days. I need to get a boost of energy from somewhere.
Good luck on your goal for a piece of art a week. Lofty goals but your up to the challenge.
