I decided to do one of these. Stuck on the decision phase. Will the paper take watercolor? should I change out the paper? What theme should I choose? Should I ignore all the themes and just play with the media? Should I use watercolor?acrylic ink? Inktense Blocks? Inktense pencils? Colored pencils? Graphite pencil? Or all of the above. Perhaps I will end up using all of them. https://www.instagram.com/p/B7_jUBHAKVa/?igshid=jv3aogdut2hq

I needed another project like I needed a whole in the head. There is a good reason though. I wanted to teach my daughter how to knit socks. We are doing this via a conference call. Needing a sock to demonstrate on I just started a new pair. I found this Lorna Laces sock yarn in my stash and away we go. The stripes are a little weird but it will still make a great sock. Colors are purple, blue, green and turquoise. This project is great for mindless knitting. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw9qK8pjg2Y/?igshid=1b754sgsnqtsc

Here is a view from Camas. It was a beautiful day. We didn’t a lot of wildlife but we saw 3 bald eagles. I’ll be taking a break from posting on Social Media for awhile. I’ll see you soon. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu4a5pqjXlE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xhh383ebmk2u

In my art journal. Some more play. It started with paint scrapings and then this elder appeared. I am not sure what she is saying, what do you think? https://www.instagram.com/p/BuwEPNWj5AY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lh9y7s07vvk1

There will be no In the Studio this week. I don’t have the energy for it. I’ll be back next week, same day, same bat channel. https://www.instagram.com/p/BuekijjDsc0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jk46faoqedom

It’s been raining instead of snowing. But today I got a sure sign of spring. The Redwing blackbirds are back. They are always a sign of spring for me. Moving onto day four of the visibility challenge. Over at @creativedreamincubator Andrea asks us what is one small step we can take towards becoming more visible. My first thought was to go and do some research on all of the suggestions people made on my post yesterday of gadgets to hold my phone. I will do that but I’m thinking of another small step to take is to plan what my first short term video will be. I can record with what I have it’s just problematic, but it is doable. So waiting for new equipment is a little bit like putting it off. So I’ll sit down with pen and paper and jot down some ideas. https://www.instagram.com/p/BubuG88DPER/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ibwesaxxt19h
