“The consistency of the process is where the magic is.” -Emily McDowell

✅ Today is my 100th day of exploring this prompt: What if it all works out? 💖
In February, I invited my Ko-fi patrons to experiment with a 100-Day-Project. Little did I know that at the end of my 100-days I would be in need of beginning a new 100-day-countdown project—because I definitely need 🪄 the magic going forward.
If you have ever considered a 100-day project, I remind you that you can trust yourself and your urges. 😊 Any day can be your Day One to conjure your own bit of 🪄 magic, Braveheart.
I need some days off before I begin again, so I have decided to cycle with the 🌙 moon.
🌈 May 23 is the first quarter 🌓 moon (and marks significant events for my family). ➡️ The ideal Day One for me because I have medical appointments every day (again …) this coming week. So, Saturday, May 23 it shall be! 🥳

By the way, creativity + community may not change whatever challenge or suffering we may be experiencing—BUT creativity + community is definitely a pathway to joy and belonging. 🥳
Your “100-day project” may be as simple as a daily mark on a monthly calendar, or filling in a circle with doodles to mark time. ⬇️

Whatever you decide about a 100-Day-Project, I invite you to focus on actively prioritizing time for yourself—along with investing time in-community. 💞
Thank you kindly for your presence here, Braveheart. 💗
I appreciate your interest and support.
~love & good wishes~

⭐️ I am an artist and curator; I am one who communicates with color, found words and collage, inky marks and doodles as I cycle like the moon (as my calendar), chronicling oracles and abiding with the sky as a meditation.
⭐️ I host creative communities, safe spaces for gathering and sharing. I choose love and creativity for coping with the ongoing challenges of this world and I go to work—not because everything is fine but because I believe art heals.
