The 100 Day Project

I learned about the 100 day project from a friend who helped support me to make one piece of art or share a part of a piece of art each day for 100 days.  I decided that I would share my playing with watercolors and words and my fiber art and my poetry.  I began on February 26, 2022.













This was the introduction to the project on February 25.

My first post was a piece that I was working on in collaboration with my friend, Kim Hammer.  Madonna and Child

About a third of the way--but I see that I missed a couple days in my sequencing.  I'll have to add  #12/100 & #17/100.  It's play and serious thoughts of my art all at once.  It's fun and stimulating.  If you'd like to follow along, I'm on
