W.I.P. (Work In Progress) Wednesday

There is quit a bit of creative things going on in my life, and I realise I don't share it enough with my blog readers. So I got the idea from Jennifer at http://www.blueskysunburn.com to make a W.I.P. (Work In Progress) Wednesday. This way you get a glimpse of some of my life and maybe I will get some more blogging done too.

This Wednesday I am working on a custom Easter egg. The background colours are laid down, Now the detail work starts...

2011 diary project

Work in progress

Some of you may remember the 2010 diary project, well there is a 2011 diary project this year.

If you have not reserved your spot do so at http://www.fantazya.ca/diary2011.html
This fantastic project run by the Lucy, where artists and designers around the world create one diary page each. Each person signs up for a different day / page, designs it in black and white. There is 208 pages, with 397 different designs in total. You have date pages, address pages, notes pages, months page, introduction page, and year pages. All put together to a great, inspiring and delightful piece of work. The 2011 diary/almanac comes in both a book for and on a CD. You'll be able to see your own piece of work along with many others - it's a great way to show off what you can do and see what others are doing too! There are spots still available so if you want to join, head over to http://www.fantazya.ca/diary2011.html and reserve your page. To design a page you need to have a web space from where you sell or promote your art, personal website, personal blog, Etsy, Flickr, etc. Participation is free.
