Day One – Geranium Fairy

Flower Fairy

Today is the first day of my New Job— to create art. I am committing myself to creating something every day for the next year starting today, June 1, 2015.

My rule is simple:

1. Do something creative every day.

It can be complete or incomplete, an idea jotted down, a step towards a finished project, a new technique learned. I will document what I've done for that day here. Here is my first post. I finished hand coloring an image from a week or so ago. It is not an original drawing but a rubber stamped image by Mary Cicely Barker entitled Geranium Flower Fairy. I stamped the image on watercolor paper with a light distress ink. Then I used Ranger Distress brush markers with a watercolor technique learned from Tim Holtz. He has video tutorials and online classes if you want to learn more.
