Begin Between @choosejoystudio invitation and Set Begin

Between @choosejoystudio invitation and Seth Godin’s words of inspiration in The Practice, I’m getting the message.

Creativity and kindness make a difference.

We can’t ignore the things that are wrong, we’ve done that for too long. We work. We come together in community. We gather in love and kindness and we do the work together. We seek. We make. We do. We love. We mend. We build.

Day 52/100: What if - more acrylic, wax and paper Day 52/100: What if - more acrylic, wax and paper play.

Continued experimentation. I’m liking the way the wax soaked into the sgraffito and the edges. The book is taking shape.

Day 50/100: What if we’re half way done? Hurray Day 50/100: What if we’re half way done?

Hurray! We’re at the half way point of our collaborative 100 Day Project! It’s like life, on one hand it feels like we don’t have enough time left and on the other it feels like a LONG time since we began.

@hothouseposey and I had an art swap a couple weeks ago. Yes, we were socially distanced and properly masked. It was inspiring and I think it helped move us in a direction we’re both excited about. (Go read her post about it. I’ll wait here.) This is one of her pieces she shared with me. You know I had to add some beeswax with the color. I also did a “what if I add paper with the wax?” experiment that worked pretty well. There’s more percolating but I wanted to show the work in process.

Here’s to the next fifty days!

Day 49/100: What if I combine metal and books agai Day 49/100: What if I combine metal and books again?

This altered book has been in the works for a LONG time. In fact, I had a different idea for the niche inside, but inspiration hit and I started tinkering with pieces in my jewelry studio.

The book cover is made with venetian plaster, ink, repurposed paper, folded enameled metal, and beeswax. Maybe I should call this book the kitchen sink? There’s a lot in the simple piece. Maybe that’s what I love about making books. They appear to be simple, but are really so much more.

Day 48/100: What if I begin? Digging into phase o Day 48/100: What if I begin?

Digging into phase one of this project.

It’s important for me to do this.

Actually, I believe it’s important for everyone to find a way to do something like this and I’ll explain why later.

Today is the beginning of this accordion book with two kinds of paper, beeswax and variegated thread. The paper, threads and wax treatment were selected from the samples I showed a couple days ago.

I’ll share more as the project continues. It’s going to take awhile. I’ll post the progress as we move forward.
