Once again, I decided to join @OpusArtSupply February challenge #opusdailypractice to make art each day. As we are travelling, I used my small sketchbook (6"x4" each side) for this challenge. Opus put a suggested word for the day and you could use it or do something else. I set up each side of my book with the date and prompt and then chose which one I felt like doing each day. We were prompted to post on Instagram #Opusdailychallenge Most of the time, I found if I just drew something in this thin papered book that I was happy with that. Painting or adding colour was a bonus and could be played with later. Prompts: Top left: Day 1 "Experiment" (squished plants to see if I could get colour), Middle and Top Right: Day 2 "Layers" A layered page that opens up of found papers. Lower left: "Explore" Linda asking permission to paint this juice vendor's business on our plein air Saturdays. Middle: Day 3 "Monochrome" includes a found feather. Bottom right: Day 5 "Sparks" - my name for a little hummingbird that rests on the electrical wires outside our balcony Top left: Day 6 "Hand", Middle: Day 7 "Play" pickleball court, racquet and ball. Top right: Day 8 "Juxtapose" the white birds against the blue sky and water. Day 9 "Reflect" the beautiful colours of a sunrise. Day 10 "Dragon" summer dragon boat paddling in the Shuswap. Day 11 "Fluid" my sweating glass (drawn with a black Elegant Writer) Top left: Day 12 "Fusion" watercolour, Middle: Day 13 "Vessel" ink, scorpions in tequila Right: Day 14 "Bond", dancers from Oaxaca. Bottom left: Day 15 "Fabric" a fabric store's street table.
