This year for Lent I started l my daily creativity project late and I made myself a deal, I didn’t have to do one every day. Mostly because it was a rough lent for me, very busy, and lots of stress. I didn’t need this project to become an added stress and then become something to push me further from my relationship with God and further from art itself. If you want to know more about my personal struggles we can chat over a soda/coffee/tea sometime, but for the blog, it’s not important. I was able to manage 26/40 images. I have a pair of shoes that will be posted once they are fully weather proofed, that was part of my creativity, and some baking projects too. I think I did well, and I’m happy with the results. four of my creations have been ordered as prints, so that’s 3 more than last year, that’s another win. I would like to look into making stickers from some of the works, like the Pi symbol and possibly an updated version of the Rocktopus, I like the RedBubble stickers and think I will make a few of these things available there. I wish they could go larger than 3″x4″ but they will die cut it too, so that’s cool.
So what was your favorite creation this year?
My good friend Jason of the Talk Nerdy 2 Me podcast, had a big bump in the road of life recently, so the Flash Mob (the fans/community of folks that listen to the Flash Pulp Podcast) got together to try and cheer him up. This is my contribution, a pop art icon of him, I made it using an image I took of him, and with the suggestion of Tek I added the logo of his podcast to his t-shirt. I sent him a Giclee Print of it before posting it here, so his surprise was first seen in the mail :)
