I painted a nautilus shell on day 7 but wasn’t terribly thrilled with it so I tried it again on day 8.
Amazing what a difference slowing down can make. I should have listened to Lisa Congdon more carefully the first time I tried this exercise but then for most of us we need to practice and do things over and over again to get better.

In honour of Orthodox Christmas I’m posting my last photo of Christmas lights.

Today I finished my scarf. I was hoping to have enough yarn left over to add a bit of fringe. It was not in the pattern.
I’ve just finished adding the fringe. There was just enough left to make two large tassels. 
….I picked up my inks and pens for this one
On Creative Bug there are numerous daily creative challenges for all kinds of art and craft projects. I usually go to the drawing and painting section but I have used some of their knitting patterns and DIY projects. I went back to one of my favourite artists on Creative Bug, Lisa Congdon for her 31 Days of Drawing and Painting with Ink Challenge.
For today’s creative project I chose to paint Barnacles. You start with a light layer of ink and then add lines in a pattern that resembles a barnacle. It is very meditative.
