I'm back!
It's not as impressive as it sounds. I got distracted by *stuff* and found that doing my blog posts was no longer a priority. It doesn't mean I haven't been doing my art or writing. In fact I've been doing lots more of both...and plan to do lots more this year.
NaNoWriMo was a blast and because of that I'm interested in doing Camp NaNo this year - twice. I haven't totally given up on Illustration Friday but I have gone in the direction of the Art Journal/Smash Book for now. I bought a couple of moleskin journals and with the help of a lot of YouTube tutorials I'm learning the tricks of the trade and loving every minute of it. I hope to share the flips just as soon as I learn how to make them :-)
Which brings me to the plan for this year: THE CREATIVE PATH.
The Creative Path is a 52 week creative challenge that I am embarking on so I can remain true to my creative development but also so that I can use that creative walk to improve myself as a person being. To live, to love and to learn...to share and grow and remain accountable to this creative journey.
The creative work will revolve around my art journal/smash book and a monthly theme. I intend to include writing as well. This blog will have at least one weekly post featuring the art work for that week. I will write no less than 2,000 words of fiction as either a part of a longer story or as a short complete story. I will probably share a few of the short stories (especially flash fiction) when I can. I will work on at least one article for my personal magazine/newsletter which I hope to start sharing as well.
So...it begins.
