ArtSoMoFo starts Monday, October 1 through Wednesday, October 31. I've been clearing a space on my studio table to get ready and I still haven't decided what I'll be working on. To finish works in progress, and there are dozens of them, or to start something new? On challenges like this the latter seems to work best, as it did when I did my Random Rubber Journal and Gluebook of Me, but not with this summer's Gluebook Challenge. I made it way too complicated and it was too much of a challenge to think about cranberries and pumpkins when the Farmers' Market had me up to my elbows in strawberries and tomatoes. I did, however, do a spread last weekend when I splurged on some figs from Whole Foods. Looks like I just decided to start anew for ArtSoMoFo. Now for a theme? I think the most helpful aspect of a challenge is the community of accountability. So let's go ya'll!
