Happy 2014 Everyone!

I did it. I am doing it. I took Leslie’s challenge again.

I thought I had read somewhere, that it takes six weeks to develop a new habit. But I just did a quick search, and it seems it may only take between 21 and 30 days. So I am good to go on the painting everyday habit, after completing Sea Dean’s December Painting Party.

I have managed to start a few paintings early. Whew!

At last check, there were 365 artists signed on to take Leslie’s challenge. Wow! What a great way to start a creative new year! I am so excited to see all the great art that is going to be born this month!

Day One of 2014

The Milliande Birthday Postcard Swap I am a part of does not include any birthday’s for this month. Which is a blessing in disguise, because we are celebrating five birthdays next month. I am trying to get a jump on my birthday creations, and have them ready before Thanksgiving.

I am also working on a postcard submission for a show in New York City, and the deadline is the beginning of next month. I have several cards started, and this I finished today.

Leslie shared with us a great way to make a collage. You can do it too! So easy, just visit http://www.picmonkey.com/. You can choose the layout, and how many photos to add, and then you can type a message, change colors and all of that. I tried to put my name on it, but It did not save. It’s late and I am ready for bed. That’s my story and I am sticking to it.
