100 Day Project

The 100 Day Project is an annual, self-directed, global, online artist residency. My intention was to make my original art more accessible by creating smaller works while further developing my voice through creative experimentation and expression through daily new work of art. The project is centred in daily, Instagram post sharing and supported by a community participating artists around the world. I explored mediums including poetry, collage, embroidery, dance, video, resin, photography, nature-based paints, Procreate, iMovie, oil and watercolour stick, watercolour and acrylic on grounds including wood panel, canvas, fibre and paper. My singing, guitar and music production were released for the first time. In addition, I completed a large scale work, Between the Light. Read detailed project summary…

View Available Work
Between the Light, 47 x 59 in, Acrylic on Canvas

Spaces Between is a tiny film.
Visuals and music by yours truly. View on YouTube.

Day 38. Together. Digital sketch.. This sketch was Day 38. Together. Digital sketch.. This sketch was made while watching Netflix’s The Principles of Pleasure, a limited series examining women’s sexuality. This portrait is a compilation of all the women speakers of various kinds created as one. Which is a bit ironic as every woman is unique. Simultaneously, women are most powerful when we support each other. We are often taught to compete. So, this can take a leap of faith. Each color represents a specific person. I returned to the color plan as much as possible as the speakers switched back and forth. The original palette was spec’d from a garden plant near my home. Thanks for supporting my 100 Day Project. Love how this is pushing me to use Procreate more! Printed on archival watercolor paper on demand.

The 100 Day Project
My intention with the 100 Day Project is to make my original art more accessible while my enhancing experimentation, voice and skills through daily practice. This will require intense effort as I plan to simultaneously develop my larger works@of art! I would love to share my work with many new people. Prices range from C$20 to C$100. Art may be any form. DM me if you see something you like…but do hurry! These are rare, small works with prices that will change after the project ends. Runs as described from February 13 - May 24. 
Update 
This challenge has been sooo fun! It’s also been an epic journey. I reassessed. It’s a marathon not a race. So, I’ve decided to modify my goals. I will include a work-in-progress image periodically. I’ve also stopped Giveaway Tuesday. Sharing this way was fun yet my energies all need to be on the project.

This was my first first jam session as a singer and guitarist. First time plugged in. First time recording my own live song with a band. I’m beyond thrilled! I was anxious at first so it was hard to be comfortable and do my best. Not to mention, it wasn’t my guitar! 😅 I’ve been taking lessons through the pandemic and knew a couple songs before that. I’m so grateful these talented two were joyful, encouraging, helpful. They drew out the best of the song. Lucky me. So fun! Shirt by @artgirlrising. And that unicorn hat!!

Day 20. My interest in interior design led me to Day 20.  My interest in interior design led me to take two MasterClasses in January. One class was with Kelly Wearstler and the other with Corey Damen Jenkins. I’ve been practicing on a fun app called Design House. It’s been a good creative outlet for when I’ve got a break from time to time. In a pandemic, whatever works to keep you entertained is a good thing. Here’s today’s design!  #kellywearstler #coreydamenjenkins #interiordesign #vancouverinteriordesigners #vancouverdesigners

I recently learned cloud storage is an environmental issue. In any case, I’m lucky to have seen all this beauty in one day. I covered a lot of ground both geographically and emotionally. I’m so grateful for the time in nature to realign. It was the first time in 19 months that I’ve seen US land. Pre-COVID, I spent a third of my years there. I have not been for 2 years and 4 months. Things changed so fast. The last photo is of Washington State from White Rock.  #beautifulbc #discoverbc #canadianphotography #birdphotography #hawkphotography #naturelover

Day 13. Eastside Atelier. 6in X 6in. Herbs and spi Day 13. Eastside Atelier. 6in X 6in. Herbs and spices with graphite on wood cradle. 
Inquire for availability and price. 
I wanted to push myself into uncharted territory in terms of mediums. I was well out of my comfort zone tonight! I tried using natural, sustainable teas and herbs for pigment. The crows and a few details are in graphite. I’m surprised with how much I like how this turned out! Don’t get me wrong…I LOVE color!!! But I could honestly say that although muted, this painting has that something that intrigues me and conveys emotion in a meaningful way. And why am I always one day ahead of everyone?! Lol!

Day 12. Behind the scenes! 😀 My crazy creative Day 12. Behind the scenes! 😀 My crazy creative life. I love it! I try to practice music daily for at least five minutes…sometime much more! This is my new, tiny-desk recording studio. I’m so excited about this creative cocoon! I carved out some space in a closet a couple weeks ago and now it’s my fave place. This experience is so much better than sitting on the floor amongst my dirty laundry. Haha! Feeling very lucky. I’m two years into learning ukulele and guitar. Tonight I was practicing Here Comes the Sun by the Beatles. This has been a challenging song and I’ve learned so much including pull-offs, slides and improved my tab reading. Phew. Getting close!! Hope to share that song soon. Until then, here’s a photo of a special part of Jojoland.

Day 9. I was reluctant to create today. It’s bee Day 9. I was reluctant to create today. It’s been a busy day. In any case, this jester made of sewn mask pieces was born. This one reminds me of a work from an early portfolio and now in my personal collection, The Fool. Feels good to see the jester pop into my conscience again.

I’ve been having fun with a book by @daniellekrysaart of @thejealouscurator called A Big Important Art Book. One prompt is a self portrait. I gathered up a bunch of 2020 photos. Daily life changed overnight in 2020. Things seemed a little backwards. I tried to boost the immune system of myself and my loved ones. I also did strange things like wash my Mom’s groceries. One major undertaking was the launch large mask-making coalition, hence the bag of masks. Learned Zoom and social distancing. I drank chaga mushroom mocktails. My passion for making music was fired up again when my dear neighbours loaned me their ukulele…for a year!

This is kind of scribble. I wrote this ditty while recording it and put this all together very intuitively in one night. It probably sounds like it. Ha ha! Not meant to be perfect. Annnnyway, I promised I’d go beyond my comfort zone. So, here’s an experiment. ;) Thanks for watching. Hope you like noodles.
