Day 16 of #the100dayproject #100layersbymixy ————————— Editing the day after cos I just saw all my words are missing. I forget what they were. So today you can think of your own words 🤔😉 #nowords

I don’t know the symbolism, but I notice I keep drawing hands. So here’s another on a page a added more to today. this art journal travels almost everywhere with me and since the end of last year I’ve been adding little bits here and there most days. ——————————————- #artjournaling #arteveryday #bitbybit #streamofconsciousness #patternsonpatterns #handprints

I started this art journal page while I was eating my lunch one day at work. This book travels almost everywhere with me and since the end of last year I’ve been adding little bits here and there most days. ——————————————- #artjournaling #arteveryday #bitbybit #streamofconsciousness #patternsonpatterns #handprints

day 15 of #the100dayproject #100layersbyMixy —————————————— I wonder if it’s because I began it later, but this canvas has got something quite different going on . Of course this is only the second layer which will become lost under the next shapes and colors our the next few weeks, but I’m intrigued to see if it keeps its own distinct character. ———————————————- I’m learning much more than a new style of painting is this 100 day project (Which is why I love these challenges so - it’s the sideways lessons that show up along the way) ———————————— One lesson I have to relearn in every layer is that I don’t have to like how it looks. The counter lesson to that is, if I do like how it looks, to have the courage to cover it up and see what happens next. I don’t know if courage is the word - but the belief that it’s all a part of the process, it’s transient, let’s move on now and let it go. It’s all and exercise in letting go again and again. I guess the idea is, if I can do this in painting, I can do this in life. ———————————— #100layersbyMixy #100dayproject2018 #100daysproject #100daycollective #itsallametaphor #exactlylikelifeis #lettinggo #nonattachment #itsalljustpassingthrough #werealljustpassingthrough #timelapsepainting #paintingtomusic #findingarhythm #findingmystyle #fingerpainting #creativeprocess #learningallthetime #creativepractice #intuitivepainting #intuitiveart #paintingwithink #abstractpainting #abstractart #watchmepaint #swirlyshapes #lightanddarkcontrast #straightlinesandcurves
