How I Write 10,000 Words in a Single Day

Work, work, work, work

Hey, since this blog is about creativity, we are captivated by it, we live by it, it is our bread and butter. Why not write a blog post about how to write 10,000 words a day? I started writing 10,000 words a day a couple of years ago. Then I stopped, I just became victim to my own limiting beliefs, I basically started to think I was doing too much.

Observe

Hey guys it's been a while, I did not manage to complete the 30-day colour Focus challenge. Due to various factors that I will not go into right now. I'm currently dictating this post instead of hand typing, due to a hand injury  I acquired by no fault of my own.

Colour Focus Mixed Media Art Challenge: Day 5 + Shakespeare Quote

“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.” 
― William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream

Shout into the void

Today's mixed media piece is a self portrait, taken with a Canon 550d camera. We printed the portrait out and added paint effects, we then scanned it. We created this piece in the midst of writing a very heartfelt poem about falling in love, the dark side of love, that side of love that leaves you breathless. Feeling vulnerable, feeling like the world as you know it is over. That side of love that leaves you feeling lost in an unknown world, maybe its not love, maybe its obsession, infatuation, need, rather than want. Greed, rather than generosity, maybe its just another one of those feelings, unfathomable.  Consumed.

"The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web"  - Pablo Picasso. 

Welcome to day 1 of our first challenge of 2016, our colour focus challenge will focus on creating mixed media pieces using limited colour palettes.
