Hello Creativity Challenges virtual friends
Last week I went to Chicago to take dancing lessons
for a week with a beautiful friend. Because of
several weather delays on Sunday I did not send out
this CC 2003-33.
Here goes.
Purchase or find a book of 8 Crayola crayons or any
other brand you choose and some blank white paper and
a couple sheets of blank construction or other type of
paper that crayons can mark on.
This week the Challenge is to explore color and
free-flowing drawing.
Each day spend time using color to draw, mark, sketch.
There is no need to focus on a finished work simply
experience the color of the day and the crayon. Learn
from it and your intuition and subconscious mind.
MONDAY
Take out the black crayon and work on a sheet of white
paper. The goal is to experience the crayon and the
color, lines, shapes, textures not necessarily create
a drawing.
TUESDAY
Take out the green crayon and work on a sheet of white
paper. The goal is to experience the crayon and the
color, lines, shapes, textures not necessarily create
a drawing.
WEDNESDAY
Take out the orange crayon and work on a sheet of
white paper. The goal is to experience the crayon and
the color, lines, shapes, textures not necessarily
create a drawing.
THURSDAY
Take out the red and blue crayons and work on a sheet
of white paper. The goal is to experience the crayon
and the color, lines, shapes, textures not necessarily
create a drawing.
FRIDAY
Take out the white and yellow crayons and work on a
sheet of black paper. The goal is to experience the
crayon and the color, lines, shapes, textures not
necessarily create a drawing.
Have fun experiencing and learning the materials, the
medium. Deliberately do not focus on creating
anything simply do.
Please share your reactions and experiences.
