Art Every Day Month Day 30

Welcome to day 30 of Art Every Day Month! Congratulations!!! Whether you created for a few days or all 30, you added more creativity into your life and that's something to celebrate. Well done!

I often post my art at the end of the day or sometimes post a few at once, 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.

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 post 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 image, 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, in a past AEDM, 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 from that day.  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 talk about 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.

Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram: You can use the same #aedm2015 hashtag if you're playing along on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter. A Facebook group has been created as yet another place to share. 

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.

Day 28: Sitting on the Moon

November 28th, 2015, One Comment

Part One: Today I'll share a bit of my process, just for fun. Although, sometimes I just start painting and see where it goes and sometimes the idea is more developed, today I had this little seed of an idea to start with. I doodled it on the corner of a grocery list I was writing at the crack of dawn and later I  tore it off and brought it into my art space as my inspiration.

Part 2: Working with wet water color paper and my inspiration doodle nearby, I started adding purple fluid acrylic paint, letting it drip from the top. I started to see the moon shape right away, but the figure looked more like a back of a figure than a front, so that changed the image for me.

Part 3: I sketched out the new image I saw in the painting to get a sense of where it was going.

Part 4: Finished up the image with more acrylic paint, watercolor pencils, and ink.

This piece was created in a 6"x6" canvas. I originally was going to have the shirt filled with stars, but as often happens, things changed as I worked and I went with it!
