After my wavering creativity recently I have realised how important it is not to loose momentum. It becomes very easy to say to yourself 'I'll do it tomorrow'- but of course tomorrow never comes. With the start of motherhood slowly approaching (18 weeks left!), I need to get myself into creative habits now. It's only going to be harder once little Aria is here and needs my devoted attention.
So I have decided on a challenge for the month of September: Fill a page a day. I'm using an A5 spiral bound sketchbook which is a realistic size for me to tackle every day. I have also made a list of things to draw so I always have something on tap.
There are a few rules I'm giving myself to stay on track:
- It must be a full, finished page page.
- It must include some colour (either from paints, pencils, felt pens, crayons...whatever.)
- It should take between half and hour and an hour to do each day. More if I have time.
- It doesn't have to be pretty or perfect.
Here is my page from today (day #2):
While I will do an update or two on the blog, I will be posting mostly over on Instagram. If you're keen to join in, use the hashtag #septemberpageaday, I would love to check out what you've done :)
