Grid
The members of Everyday Matters, the Yahoo!group, have been working on an interesting project. Take a page, divide it into thirty squares (pipaudstudio created a Word template you can download
here), then do a drawing each day in one of the squares. After a month, it will be filled with a rich quilt of art. No matter how lame any one of the drawings is, the overall result will be
beautiful. As the month ended, some of the participants have been uploading their work. It's very interesting and inspired me.
Patti signed me up to contribute a piece to the auction at Jack's school, a watercolor of the school. I carved my page up and got to work.

ok, I tried to get to the grid, no such luck, then I decided I would join the Yahoo group.. why do I ever think stuff will be easy? When you search yahoo groups for everyday matters, an astounding array of groups comes up..none even close, many funny. Then tried danny gregory.. fewer groups, not as funny...oh well. How about a link to the yahoo group or a working link to the grid, though the group link seems more like teaching me to fish.

If you look on the right margin side of my blog, there's a link to the group.
But here it is too:

I love this idea...would be good for each trip we take, for example. Or views of the garden, by the month....or offbeat views of meals...or...
The possibilities are endless!
