So I mentioned in my last post that my work from the first three chapters was put together on airplanes. Here's what else you need to know. I KNEW that I was going to work through the book in kind of an odd setting so I prepared a spiral notebook with swatches of paint and fabric, inspiring sayings cut out of books, and pretty pens and markers. I knew when the time came where this was not simply this fun idea but would call for me to DIG DEEPER, I would need to fall back on COLOR and SURPRISE on the pages as they turned. And I will tell you that I was QUITE amazed at how some sessions, the exercise lined up PERFECTLY with what I had randomly put on the page during prep times (of course there were other times where it just seems WACKY!). AND SOMETIMES I did an exercise out of order because something I stuck on the page put me in the space to tackle the work more effectively.
OK SO...
My tools included:
5x7 spiral notebook
colored gel pens
random scrap book paper
random swatches of fabric
eagerness
determination
got some more cleaning and clearing to do ... then I'll gather my supplies to ... on no ... a Christmas brunch for 30 peeps in TN ... I love bread in a can!
