madradiant's october 30 days of creating

[jane]

hi everyone

i didnt do too well in september - but hope to try again now for October - perhaps i will make thirty days over two months!

I think i was trying to be too ambitious in my expectations when in fact each day i DO do something... i just dont recognise it as such.....

i WILL do better this month.... 8) xx

Day One

Started quite well with a few sixword tweets....

when yr weary sing out loud!
Golden sunset and full moon rising
if i fade away, forgive me this last one just popped up from nowhere and is not as desperate as it sounds 8)

Some posts on my tumblr

and gospel singing choir this evening...

so... promising for october so far!!

I love the sixworder that came out of nowhere! And the gospel singing sounds great (no pun intended)!

Day Two and Three

I have been away for the weekend visiting my daughter who has just moved away from home and set up a flat - so have not been able to be physically creative - but i have been keeping a journal and making some notes and observations for things i can use as we go through the month as well as taking a few photos

I took the photo of the music man at the station as i was setting off to see my daughter... then the full moon was amazing last night and all these wonderful colour coordinated bottles in the restaurant we visited last evening just had to be photographed!!

more later... i like Dan's idea of a theme for the month - am off to ponder if i can think of a theme! x

i've enjoyed your poetic thoughts n pics, this month & last...

[jane]

[Mary Hicks]

Wonderful pictures! Love the light and colors in all those bottles, especially!

[Carol Clark]

Wow, these are great pix, Jane! I love the brilliance of the last one, but the way the first one is shot makes it my favorite.

Hope to see more soon...:-)

Day Four

So i am up to date so far with October - closing for tonight with some little experiments in drawing.

When my daughter (a teacher) moved away she was throwing out many books.. and i was scooping them up 8). Amongst them was this book on how to draw Manga characters

so i thought i would give it a go!... so below are two little characters that i had fun with tonight.. let me know what you think . .

[Ang Monsoon]

Day Five

bejewelled and sparkling
touched by soft autumn rain, the
garden waits in peace

see my photo album that inspired my haiku....

[Carol@Swallowcliffs]

This gives me such a special feeling... I love the garden!
