\"\"<\/a>The 100 Day Project challenge is in full swing and it is already trying the resolve of many of us. Maybe, as Cynthia Tinapple said, calling me out on my proposed challenge\u00a0in her Studio Mojo newsletter<\/a> this past weekend, I might be a bit ambitious,\u00a0creating something in polymer and a poem every day to create a composite image for Instagram.\u00a0But it’s a darn good excuse to make me create every day. Mind you, I’m usually doing it at midnight but that’s the only way I don’t find myself lost for hours at the studio table not getting magazine work done. A\u00a0lot of people have been coming up with creative ways to make this challenge work for them and keep it manageable at the same time.<\/p>\n

Planet Isis<\/a>, a.k.a.\u00a0Dayl Goulsbra-Jones,\u00a0decided to break her challenge up by color. This first week her color was green. The bars of this Day Three collection of textured gradient green and canes are my favorite. The inner glow that this kind of gradient appears to have adds a nice bit of energy to the simple forms, while the calming effects of the green color give contrast\u00a0to the busy black-and-white canes.<\/p>\n

Dayl didn’t pick the green arbitrarily, either. She started this whole challenge by posting her “color generator<\/a>” which is a bag of cute little colored beads that she dips into to pull out the color for the week. Follow her Instagram account\u00a0<\/a>to see her green week and her upcoming projects.\u00a0You can also find more of her work on her website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And remember, if you are doing #the100DayProject<\/a> or any challenge or you just regularly post your creations, let me know.\u00a0You can chime with a comment on any of our posts\u00a0@thepolymerarts<\/a> or on my personal page @the_sage_arts<\/a>. I’d love to follow your creative journey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
