Collaging the Weeks

1/52 Weeks of Noting
"You don't need endless time and perfect conditions. Do it now. Do it today. Do it for twenty minutes and watch your heart start beating."
 - Barbara Sher

* I am playing along with Stargardener's 52 weeks of noting. 
Each Friday she is creating a small collage using a playing card and random elements.  Her mission is to creatively document the keywords, colors and.or lessons of each week. She is posting her cards every Saturday and sharing on twitter #my52cards and Flickr(my52cards).

    I absolutely love your collage and the quote you've selected. Though I've never mastered or even implemented doing something for 15-20 minutes or in increments of that unit of time, I really do believe in "do it now. do it today." and I try to implement that as often as I can. It works! Happy New Year to you dear Jan.

    It sounds like fun. But I just committed myself to an inchie a day. (There's a link on my blog if you'd like to see.) I'm using them in a similar way.

      Your inchies are just amazing AJ. I do think they would be good for me as they are so small. I tend to work big and messy! lol

    Jan, I started journalling in art at the beginning of last year. I remember I was inspired by your creative artwork. Then I gave up for various reasons. I thought I would start a written daily journal this year, but I'm once again encouraged by the thought of expressing my thoughts through a weekly collage - perhaps I will do a mix of words and pictures? ....
    Hope your week is a good one.

      I like to do a mixture too. Not always for public consumption though. Thanks for your visit Linda. x

    I originally read this as "1/52weeks of NOTHING". Small screen, tired eyes. But it made sense to me read through the Small Stones connection. As I read more, it could be taken as creating out of nothing, with the goal of achieving nothing. Mi dullness in art? I made a commitment to myself to keep my kiln active every day. Even if I just toss in an experimental mix of found objects and glass, to keep the creative juices flowing, without any other goal.
