Fun-A-Day Tips

So, one of the biggest reasons folks don't participate is the intimidation factor. Sometimes the thought of having to dedicate time everyday to art can be too much. So here's a few tips to help get
past this hurtle.
#1 - Your project doesn't have to be super complicated. If drawing a picture, or knitting a sock, creating a paper sculpture a day seems like too much of a commitment - think small. Try writing down a joke a day, or taking a picture of your cat, or making a paper airplane. Sometimes simple is better.

#2 - Prep your project before February starts. For example, I'm doing a comic a day so I'm laying out my panels this week so all I have to do is draw the images inside.
#3 - Don't stress. It's okay if you miss a day. Yeah, we're trying for 28, but hey, sometimes you get busy and you miss a day or two. No big deal we still want you to be part of the show.

#4 - Here's a
picture of a cat visiting St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow - just because.
