Fill-the-Well
(idea adapted from Julia Kirk Cameron's The
Artist's Way and
Laura Hill, dear friend and Art Director at Coronado School
of the Arts)
|
Attach this flier to the next blank page of your "Well".
Record the date on the first page.
Fill at least 10 pages, with at least three sketches or
drawings, not scribbles. Each should take at least 20
minutes.
As appropriate: Write an explanation. The significance of
your selection; and/or the background behind your selection - Where
were you? What you were doing? Who else was with you? How did you
feel? Etc.
In your own "Fill-the-Well" book, collect visual images,
experiences, writings (song lyrics, poetry, quotes), ideas, doodles,
and so on…cut images out of magazines, paint, collect
photographs, write profound or even less than mediocre thoughts over
postcards, newspaper clippings, club fliers, music advertisements.
Paste "found objects" in your "Well": leaves, random papers (worn
bags and papers can add texture, color, memories), candy wrappers,
packaging remnants, stamps, cloth, pieces of a letter from an old
friend. The possibilities are endless--your only limitation is your
imagination!
