Art Every Day Month Check-In: November 15th
November 15th, 2009
Today is the 15th day of Art Every Day Month. Can you believe it? We're half-way through the month! It always flies by so fast. Take a moment today to congratulate yourself for all you've accomplished, think about what you might like to create during the rest of November, and then jump back in and enjoy it!
The box below is a widget that I provide each day as an optional place to share a direct link (blog post or flickr image) to that day's creation. If you don't have something to share today, don't worry about it! Share when you can. In the meantime, be sure to check out what other participants are creating! Check out the links from today's post and the links in the sidebar for instant inspiration. You can also see lots of great work in the AEDM flickr group. Feel free to share your work there too!
If you use the widget, please link to a specific blog post (or specific image if you're linking to a flickr page or other website) instead of your main blog page or website. If you want to share, but don't have a specific page to link to, feel free to use the comments section of this post to share what you're working on. If you're posting less than once a day, no problem! Simply use the latest one of these posts to share a link to your creation. For some, it's too much to keep up with posting every day, but don't let that get you down. Do it if you can and if you can't, just keep on creating, that's the most important part. If you get off track and miss a few days of creating, don't let that freeze you up either. Just pick up where you left off and keep moving forward. One foot in front of the other. You are making your life a more creative one with each step.
If you're new to Art Every Day Month, check out the AEDM info page for all the details, then send me an email to sign-up before you use the link widget to share your creations. (If that email link isn't working, you can email me at leah at bluetreeartgallery.com)
Instructions: Please see the Art Every Day Month Instructions post if you have any confusion about how to post your link or how to sign up.
Twitter: Are you participating in AEDM and you're on Twitter too? I'm on there as @leah_art and I've been using the hashtag #aedm to mark Art Every Day Month tweets. I also started a Twitter list for AEDM which can help you easily find Twitter folks who are participating. If you're not on the Twitter list yet and would like to be, send me a DM (Direct Message on Twitter.)
Creativity is the ability of a person to respond to visual and other sensory stimuli in an original way, and then to share this response with passion, individuality, and spirit. ~Gerald Brommer

I am such a slug! Half way through?!!! and I haven't even posted one thing – and now my computer is off getting devirused and I have no way to work with photos on this netbook. Sigh. Well, I had good intentions…and love stopping by to see what the non-slugs are doing. Beautiful community you have here!

Today I posted a picture of a portrait I'm working on. This challenge has my mind in a constant creative flow. I love it!

I really can't believe we're halfway through already! I was so surprised to put 'day 15' in the title of today's post. Looking forward to the next 15 days.

Whew! had a heck of a time getting to the check in box for day 15. Guess my pc is on aedm overload! Posted two pieces late last evening and am still working on two others though I am not "feeling it" for either…they may have to be "shelved" til some later date…

Phew! Finally another blog post after a long, silent pause. I've managed to keep creating stuff, so I'm very pleased with the first half of this month, and I can't wait to see what I'll manage next.
I'm particularly pleased because I thought I'd manage a day or two and then it would all drift away again.
Thanks for organising this, Leah
Now to find time to go blog visiting!

I forgot to create a link yesterday…so there are two today. Spent the weekend at our "bit of earth" in Vermont, where life is overwhelmingly inspirational! Now I need to catch up with visiting other blog postings!

Day 15… the halfway point! And I am so happy with the way this challenge is working for me.
I am grateful to everyone who has visited my blog and I give special thanks to those kind people who have left me comments and feedback. It is very encouraging to hear from you - it even helps me notice new things about the work!
