Jumping in
C’est moi
I’m a long-time maker and tinkerer who primarily uses recycled/reclaimed materials to make art and other objects of fancy. I work with paper, glue, old boxes, ephemera, and old pieces of hardware (computer and construction) and usually have a paint stain or two somewhere on my person.
I’m almost thirty and live in Florida with my husband, brother, a terrier and three cats. I have two degrees and work with nonprofits as a day job; it’s really a privilege for my career to be as much of a passion as my creating.
The plan, such as it is
1. To do a 1×1-inch sketch every day. I’m not much of a drawer, but I started these one-inch things once before and was impressed with the way your skills increase if you keep at it enough. I’ll never be able to sell my drawings, but it is something I’d like to get better at just for my own pleasure.
2. To make one other thing every day: an ATC, a book mark, a well-thought out post to my new creativity blog. I also have a few of those devilish to-do projects hanging around that just need to be completed and to stop hanging over my head. I plan to use Thing-a-day as a motivation to accomplish those, too.
