Day 13

Compulsion part iii
watercolor on paper, 6" x 9"

I'm posting a couple days ahead since I've got some things going on. I do hope to be back at the brush/pen/camera/computer on Friday to post day 14, but I may not quite be ready. I'll catch up (or at least try to!) with everyone's work over the weekend. Happy arting!

Day 12

Compulsion part ii
watercolor on paper, 6" x 9"

Day 11

Stella's treading

Day 10

Bamboo
Watercolor on paper, 6" x 9"

There's not much order in my world.
I get caught up in watching the paint leave the brush, so this type of piece is fun to create. I can ponder the process while processing.

Day 9

Paper flowers
paper, wood, glass beads, glue, tin can & salt
(whole piece)

I'm not sure how much "academic artists" dwell on whether they're creating art, but I spend a fair amount of time thinking about that very thing. I suppose some of what I create could be considered folk art (in that I'm self-taught, self-motivated, unrepresented and uncommissioned). I'm not sure that today's 100 Days entry counts as art, but I am including it as my day 9 piece because it is the product of a specific pursuit of creative expression...even though that isn't necessarily how I would define art if asked for a definition. But I enjoy spending time with materials, thinking about how they're supposed to go together, and then finding new ways to mesh them.

Day 8

Bending wills
