"Work with only the classic tangram shapes today."
I found this a little hard. Came up with a fish and a piece of seaweed.
I came a cross a book by Noah Scalin titled 365: A daily Creative Journal: Make Something Everyday and Change Your Life. Now that my youngest has started school full time, I have been hoping to do more creative things. I haven't really done much since high school art classes, which were numerous years ago, but I have been knitting almost all my life. I decided to jump right into it and see where this creative journey leads.

Day 64:
"It's all about you. Incorporate yourself into whatever you make today."
Posting right down to the wire today. I incorporated myself into my work today by using my nickname "Charlie", which I have had since I was in high school, as a place to doodle different natural elements. It was all done in black felt tip pens.

Day 63:
"Behind the mask. Create a unique mask with whatever materials you like."
I went looking on the internet for some inspiration for this one and came across a picture I liked very similar to the one I drew. Not a mask you can actually wear but it is a butterfly for my nature theme.

Day 62:
"Make something with your dinner before you eat it."
A play with your food prompt. Again as I mentioned with Day 9, I have a real passion for cooking. I really didn't have the heart to reconstruct my dinner into something after making it so it is a simple photo of tonight's main meal.
All ingredients from nature (she says with a smile). Dinner is udon noodles with shiitake mushrooms, ginger and green onions in a soy and white wine broth paired with a seared shrimp salad including tomatoes, grapefruit and sprouts topped with a very spicy Thai dressing of fish sauce, citrus juice, garlic, sugar and a fresh ground hot chilli.

Day 61:
"Use only things you find around the bathroom to create something. Extra credit: Make it in the bathroom!"
I used a lipstick, shaving cream and toothpaste flicked off a toothbrush to make this winter scene on my bathroom mirror. Only problem was trying to get a good shot in a reflective surface in a narrow space.
And a close up
