The Simplest Things Challenge – Days 1 to 4

Posted on February 13, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…thanks to Amy Maricle for hosting this free on-line challenge

After making my handmade art journal I decided to fill it with drawings from Amy Maricle’s drawing challenge. Her process is very meditative and her emphasis is on moving slowly. I’m not very good at either but I love the process and I’m working on slowing down. Here are a few of the pages from my art journal.

A Great Day to Pull Up a Seat and Enjoy the Sun

Posted on February 13, 2023 by Mama Cormier

….thanks to Xingfu Mama for Hosting Pull Up a Seat https://xingfumama.blog/2023/02/10/pull-up-a-seat-photo-challenge-2023-week-6/

It doesn’t matter where you sit or what you sit on, these people were determined to enjoy the mild temperatures and sunny day this past weekend. Quite incredible when you think that it’s still winter in Toronto and barely the middle of February.
