Art Every Day Month Check-In: Day 23
November 23rd, 2012, Comments (7)
Today is day 23 of Art Every Day Month! Even small moments can be creative. Even when you don't feel like time, there's usually time for a little something, even a doodle on a post-it note.
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 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 participant sign up page 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 #aedm2012 to mark Art Every Day Month tweets. It helps to find others who are tweeting about AEDM!
Instagram: You can use the same #aedm2012 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.
Art Every Day Month Check-In: Day 22
November 22nd, 2012, Comments (4)
Today is day 22 of Art Every Day Month! Happy Thanksgiving to those of you who celebrate it! I'll be off with family today, so I may not be able to post my creation here today (unless you're on instragram, I will post it there), but I will post Thursday and Friday's art tomorrow.

Day 12: Whale Love
November 12th, 2012, Comments (15)
I'm not even sure where, but somewhere today, I saw an image of a whale and had the urge to paint one. Working with fluid acrylics on watercolor paper, I painted this whale, spouting some love.
Day 6: Persphone in Autumn
November 6th, 2012, Comments (20)
Today, I was inspired to paint an image of Persephone. I started with a collage base on 6"x6" board, then painted on top of it, not knowing exactly the direction it would take. As it developed I liked how an older woman in the collage appears in her face. I imagine that she is Persephone's mother, Demeter, in her thoughts.
Following the lead of the colors that developed, I see this as an image of Persephone in Autumn, before she enters the underworld/winter until she returns in Spring.

Welcome to day 4 of Art Every Day Month! I hope you're all enjoying yourselves! Remember to take the pressure off about creating something perfect each day, let go of that urge and have fun!
I usually post my art at the end of the day, but every morning there will be a check-in post like this one, where you can share your work whenever you're ready to do so.

Day 24: Bring Love Onesie
November 24th, 2011, Comments (9)
I've been wanting to make some fun onesies for Annabelle and AEDM seemed like the perfect opportunity to dive in! I picked up some Sharpie fabric markers and drew on a plain pink onesie. The bird is loosely based off the birds in my Bring Love painting. I want to try some freezer paper stencils too, so maybe I'll do that tomorrow.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
