Commitment: the state of being emotionally impelled to do something. My commitment is to making art, loving life and doing well.

Daily Artworks... my continuing challenge for 2015: Observe and record. Record and observe. And stretch - s-t-r-e-t-c-h - myself.
What will I discover?

Torngats 2015 - Where Nature and Culture Connect 31

Thank you to Torngat Mountain National Park and Base Camp




Colourful Flags...  
...send threads of poetry into the wind.   

Wendy Morton's poems about the Torngat Mountains National Park were printed onto multicoloured flags in English, French, as well as Inuktitut in Roman characters and Syllabics. The poems declare the beauty of the Park, and of the people who enjoy that beauty. Thank you to everyone at the Base Camp and at the Park for our wonderful visit. Thank you also to Muriel Edmunds for sharing her photos throughout this month!

Art Every Day Month - November 30

Fronds and Leaves








My last entry for AEDM for this month!

Today's painting was done, like yesterday's, with a brush-on rubber resist compound to separate the figure areas from the background areas in the picture.
Where yesterday's work was very precise and provided a clear space on the paper for a contrasting color to be painted in, today's painting is loose and free-flowing.

I feel a sense of accomplishment, certainly, at completing and posting a painting each day for the month of November, and a especially a sense of gratitude for how much progress my watercolor painting has made for the sake of an hour or two of daily practice.

And it's not just my paintings that have benefited from AEDM, because at the beginning of the month I also pledged to use Twitter to publicize my posts.
From Twitter and the AEDM'ers who used it, and from the Creative Every Day website, I feel a remarkable sense of ... community... is the only way I can describe it. And that was an unexpected bonus!

Thank you everyone for a great experience working with you! I will be checking in on your websites and blogs from time to time to see how you are doing. I invite you to continue to check into mine as well.
