Run around the world taking pictures and writing about ingenious examples of recycled crafts? And then sell it as a slick-looking book? Why have I not done this already? Ah well, I'll just want the book.
This project of mine is an effort to get myself to create more; hopefully with an overarching structure and deadline, my lazy butt will get whipped into shape. My goal is to draw a thing a day for a year - something I want, but am not buying. Realistic things, things that I've been able to buy for myself in the past, but stuff that I'm not springing for now. So no jets or ponies or castles. It's a response to our trying economic times (pleasant euphemism for everyone being broke), and not being able to have everything we want. It's an experiment in an alternate consumerism - is it possible to derive satisfaction only from drawing and spending time with a concept of a thing, rather than possessing the thing itself? Here's hoping to yes, 'cause you won't be catching me with any of this stuff any time soon.
...why have you not done this yet? you should absolutely do something like this
