A Piece of Art Each Day

Jessie at Diary of a Self-Portrait has made a commitment to do a painting every day for the next thirty days, and I'm going to join her. I did this last November with Leah at Creative Every Day, and it was really a jumpstart for my commitment and my creativity.

So I will be posting my daily dose of creativity here, every day, just as I hope Jessie does! Anyone else want to join? I'll put up a link list. I'll include creative writing, too, since I'm definitely going to participate in NaNoWriMo this year (National Novel Writing Month).

ATCs from Friday

Some ATCs

When I had to make loads of ATCs to trade when I went to Art and Soul last year in Monterey, I started making backgrounds in bulk using big sheets of watercolor paper and then cutting that into the size I needed. Now that I'm working digitally more, I'm also scanning these big sheets to incorporate into my digital pieces.

It comes in handy to have the backgrounds already made!
