Creative Every Day Check-In: Sept 27 – Oct 3

September 27th, 2010

This weekly check-in post is a place for Creative Every Day Challenge participants to share their creative activities.

Join in the Challenge: You can sign up for the  2010 Creative Every Day Challenge anytime! Find out more and fill out the sign-up form here to join in!

Ways to share: Once you've signed up, you can leave a comment on this post and/or use the "Mr. Linky" widget below to link to a blog post(s) about your creative activities during the days of 9/27/10 - 10/3/10.

The widget below is an optional method of sharing your creativity that makes it easier for others to check out what you're up to. You can use it to link to a blog post (or posts) or flickr image during the week listed. Or if you have a bunch of posts and don't want to link to all of them, you can link to your main blog page once. Do it in a way that makes sense and is fun for you! If you're unsure about how to use the widget, check out the "How to use the Mr. Linky widget" section on the Creative Every Day Challenge page. (If you're reading this in a RSS reader or email subscription, you will not see the "Mr. Linky widget", so click on over to the blog to use it.) If the Mr. Linky widget is missing from this blog post, it's probably a problem with their server and it will come back as soon as it's fixed. You can always leave your link in the comments.

You can also take advantage of the great CED flickr group to post your images and see what others are up to. If you're on Twitter, there's a growing Twitter list of CED participants and you can use the hashtag #CED2010 to help others find your Creative Every Day tweets!

Theme: The (totally optional) theme for September is the element of Water. I'll be posting about the theme throughout the month and you can feel free to use it to inspire your creations, follow your own muse, or do some combination. You can find out more about this month's theme and some prompts to get you started with September's theme here.

Happy Creating!


Between Earth and its atmosphere, the amount of water remains constant; there is never a drop more, never a drop less. This is a story of circular infinity, of a planet birthing itself. — Linda Hogan

Hello Leah, Hello Everyone.
I’m linking a 2-part post this week – the first part is up now and the second will be up later today: a little collection of water themed ATCs.
Hope you all have a good week.

Hoping this is the week that I get down to the art studio, but focusing more on keeping the body moving right now.
Stay inspired!
Michelle

Haven’t been personally very creative, but have been exploring “creativity” and writing a bit about it :)

my art room is a big mess this morning and i love it :)
i am sewing, painting and creating new workshops.
happy creating everyone!

Life has intervened and I have been hibernating creatively all summer but I still stay connected with CED and follow the progress of all you lovlies. My creative life has always been cyclical anyway though always bubbling below the surface so I am hopeful that one of these days I will find my muse waiting to get busy! In the meantime, thanks for letting me feed off your creativity….=)

I’m still kicking. Are you?

I’ve been having a great creative week with some photography of a few amazing bugs in the garden (a liquid gold beetle!!), a poem and some watercolour painting I’m pretty happy with.
And for those who enjoy polls, I’ve just posted one on my blog :-)

One of my photographs of the last few weeks is featured in “The Pacific Northwest Group” on redbubble http://www.redbubble.com/people/terrillwelch/art/5933387-1-reef-bay-in-september It is always an honour when that happens. I’ve been away over the weekend and posted about a boy and his large pumpkin grown on the edge of the street today. Yet, we have had so much rain it is hard not to think of water. Best of the week everyone!

Hello there! so much to do all the time, but trying to make time for creativity!

I’ve been working of experimenting with watercolor…it’s been fun! It’s the water that makes it flow!

Things are going… fall weather is here, along with some rain. I have finished my ATCs to bring for trading at Art Is You… the East Coast Art Retreat.

This weekend I was inspired by the natural & historic beauty of Georgian Pencarrow estate in Cornwall where I attended a wonderful writing workshop. More on my blog…

Wishing you all a happy & creative week!
Kat :-)

Still working on a challenge quilt for the Quilt Visions Fiber Art Museum; also writing about our recent trip to the Wine Country Ukulele Festival. This is my favorite time of year and the creative juices are flowing.

Have a great week of creativity and gratitude for your art form, whatever it may be.

I have done quite a few different things this week so far so I thought I would post over here. It feels greatnto be creating so much…

Hi all! I have linked two posts this week. There is also a third that I didn’t link that is new if you have time to take a peek. I’ve been having a lot of fun in my Moleskine art journals. :)

What I posted above is one of my many experiments with poetry. I didn’t explore the water theme as much as I would like to this month. However, two of the poems do contain a water reference. Also, I’ve been drinking a LOT of water and fluids ever since I started nursing school and increased my physical activity (i.e., gym, yoga, etc.)!
