Art Every Day Month Check-In: Day 25
November 25th, 2011
Today is day 25 of Art Every Day Month! I hope you're all not too full today! I'll soon have a post up about the theme for the Creative Every Day Challenge in December. If you've enjoyed AEDM and want to continue, feel free to join us next month!
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're receiving this post via email, you'll have to click through the blog to see the widget.) 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 on the participant page 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, not your main blog page or website (or you can link to a specific image if you're linking to a flickr page.) For example, last year for day one I linked to my first post: http://creativeeveryday.com/creativeeveryday/2010/11/the-owl-and-the-pussycat.html instead of my main blog page: http://www.creativeeveryday.com. This makes it easier for people to find your work. 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.
How to participate in Art Every Day Month: Check out the AEDM info page for all the details, instructions on how to get involved, and then visit the participants page to sign-up before you use the link widget to share your creations. The Information page also has instructions about how to use the widget below, if you're having any trouble with it.
Survival Guide: If you feel like you could use some more support, prompts, and motivation to keep going throughout the month, check out the Art Every Day Month Survival Guide.
Twitter: If you're on Twitter (I'm on there as @leah_art), I'll be using the hashtag #aedm2011 to mark Art Every Day Month tweets. It helps to find others who are tweeting about AEDM!
Instagram: You can use the same #aedm2011 hashtag if you're playing along on Instagram.
Creative Every Day Challenge participants: If you're not doing Art Every Day Month, you can still use any of the daily Art Every Day Month check-in posts to leave your weekly link.
Creativity is a mindset, an attitude. Regardless of how we feel - low or high or in between - creativity is always there. ~Nikki Coulombe

A very special person to me passed away on Thanksgiving. My poem, “Unca Bill” is a Biopoem, and a tribute to him.

Went a bit quiet there for a few days, with nothing to show and tell. Been trying some inkblot paintings inspired by Leah’s. Going to catch up on what everyone’s been doing now… happy weekend all. x

I have added a couple of new miniature pieces to my blog. I wanted to post them before Thanksgiving, but that JUST didn’t happen. I’ve started some new ones for tomorrow so stop by if you have a chance. Have a wonderful weekend!

I pulled out an old canvas I painted a few years ago and played with some collage elements as a foreground. ‘Twas fun!
