MY DAILY ART

I'm Kathy Loomis and I make art -- usually with a needle, but in other ways as well.

For two decades I have been doing daily art projects -- year-long commitments to make art every day according to the rules set at the start of the year. Some years I have also done weekly projects.

I like the discipline and structure of these projects; they keep me focused on my art, and give me a playground in which to experiment and have fun.

THE PROJECTS

2001 -- a quilt square every day

2003 - 2008 -- a postcard mailed to my mother every day

2009 -- a postcard mailed every day to one of my mother's children, grandchildren and children-in-law

2010 -- a photo taken and posted every day

2011 -- a photo posted every day (old photos are OK -- this gave me a chance to revisit the past and resurrect pictures that didn't make it the first time around)

2011 -- at least one bundle every week -- things found around the house or on the street

2011-12 -- found haiku, responding to a group prompt every month

2010-15 -- sign of the week

2012 -- a hand-stitched square every day

2012-2016 -- a photo suite every week -- a set of related photos on a common subject or theme

2013-15 -- a collage every day

2016 -- a drawing every day

2017 -- a text piece every day

2018 -- something with a map every day

2019-2021 -- calligraphy every day

2022 -- painting every day
