Citrus-y Goodness!

Cynthia Gaub documents her process using the Citrus Theme here. Not only do I love how this turned out but that she pushed past her comfort zone and ended up creating something wonderful AND satisfying.

Personally, that’s what I’m trying to achieve (and hopefully, you too!) with these challenges. Frankly, I need deadlines like I need another hole in my head but unless I make a concerted effort I tend to create within the same known parameters. I always feel like I’m strapped for time and don’t give myself the opportunity to "just play" or spontaneously grab new materials/supplies to try’em out. By adding this weekly challenge to my schedule, I’m trying to use some of those hoarded materials, trying out new-to-me techniques or unusual colour schemes and moving beyond my self-imposed comfort zones. It’s breezy out here on the edge but oh! so invigorating. Won’t you join me??
