new hand-lettering style is evolving and getting easier
i like the combination of script, fat-filled, and every-day style
it's fun to mix and match and think about words or ideas to be emphasized
...wanderings down the creative path wherever it may lead ... whatever it may be - the current project or interest from the Mountaintop Quilting Studio ...

THE DAILY ART DOSE IN REVIEW: JANUARY pt.1
It all started with a list of prompts and instructions and encouragement.
There are no rules other than engage daily ... a poem, a piece of art, a simple drawing, a photo, words on the page, and ATC (artist trading card) ... let your imagination soar and commit to a daily practice, and maybe even, on occasion, share with the world.
... just 10 minutes a day ...
I find when I follow a daily practice in response to a single word prompt my mind is forced to stretch and think in new ways of interpreting the word. It forces me to move beyond the dictionary page and find new ways to think about and instill meaning or communicate an idea or concept with the word ... sometimes very literal and sometimes quite vague or obscure.
I like searching for secret messages. How about you?
Join in with Tangie Baxter at the Art Journal Emporium for monthly inspiration and fun.
PS: follow me on Instagram for daily postings and the backstories for each prompt interpretation.
