Thank you!!!

This is all painted in one session, no breaks. The paint actually dries fairly quickly in thin layers. As I am painting, earlier colors are in the process of drying. So I can add more layers as I go.

Robin, That's very sweet of you... 💓 it helps to know that!!!

Thank you! Not sure what index card you're referring to? The one in this video is collaged.

It’s the one thats the image behind the opening of this video. When the video first starts, it’s the background with the words, “making a grid” across it.

Hi Jonathan, that's actually a digital graphic I created (8 years ago)! Have a great day!

@ Oh, wow !! lol. Well, it’s s cool graphic!! Thanks so much for letting me know - appreciate it!!

That's very kind, thank you 😊

Linda, So happy the 🩵 shines through!

I love that we're connecting all over the interwebs this week! Happy you enjoyed the video:) 🪩 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻

Thank you Cindy! Glad you are back into doing art!

Oh so happy you see that too! Thank you Ellie! 😍

Lenna, You're going to laugh --- but my taped grids are not measured, just guesstimated. They're usually irregular like some more rectangular than square. If I do want to measure something more precisely I have a clear ruler that makes it easier to measure the distance between lines while keeping them parallel etc.

​@@DaisyYellowArt oh wow, your grid looked so good I thought you must have measured!!! I got thrown off because of the width of the tape. Now I know estimating IS the way to go. Thanks so much, i've really been enjoying your videos.

Thank you kb! 😀😀😀

Thank you Robin! 🩷🩷🩷

Thank you Monica, happy to hear it!!!

Thank you Monica 🩷

Thanks, Hanna! It will make great collage fodder, don't you think!?

I appreciate your kind words, Sharon! 🦋

Thank you Sharon! 💗

Thank you Pattie! 💛

That would be cool indeed -- at the blog I wrote about envisioning them as glass mosaic tiles! 🩷

Thanks Thea! I appreciate your kind words!

Thank you! 🥰

The binding fell apart on one of the three journals as I was using it but the pages are still attached, fortunately. Hugs to you, Hanna!!!

If I have sparked a desire to paint -- I think that is a very good thing. If it is the color that looks like of like teal? I am almost sure it is W&N cobalt turquoise light gouache (pigment code PG50) so hopefully you can find something like that!

Thank you Lenna! I love getting carried away in the tiny details. 💚

Yay! Happy you're inspired!

Cindy, It's an engaging way to create -- thank you!

Thank you Barbara 💚 I think the un-precious nature of the surface and the idea of play for the sake of play (whatever the end result) makes a difference. You're always so supportive and I'm happy that the challenge helped you get back into your art!!!

Yes, for sure! We are posting at instagram, you can find a quick summary of how it works here: daisyyellowart.com/vividlife/icad-welcome (look for the TL;DR) and then follow the account dedicated to the challenge & index card art: @indexcardaday (previously I put all of the ICAD stuff under my account). You can see what's been posted under #dyicad2024 or in the tagged section on that account. And yes you're welcome to start any time!

Hope you have a lovely day! Thank you!

Thank you for your kind words! It was a fun project!

Thank you!

Many thanks! 💙

Thank you 💛

Glad you'll be joining the fun!

Thea, I was curious so I looked back and found some had like 40 -- it may be counterintuitive but the more I work in small format the more spacious the tiny squares feel. Thank you for your sweet comment!

Linda, these three journals are all gouache with a bit of watercolor. But no ink. That was the constraint I set for myself for the project. Thank you for your kind words!

What a sweet comment, thank you! 😊

Hi Megan, I added a link to the materials in the description -- and if you go to this video ua-cam.com/video/purz44a1W2g/v-deo.html you can see the way the grid looks while I'm painting. I will be doing an online workshop later this year, here's the notification list: daisy-yellow.squarespace.com/creativity-form

@@DaisyYellowArt that’s great thank you. 😀

Thank you! Always a great project!

Hi Gina I'll be posting the daily prompts (which are optional) one week at a time in these places: website: daisyyellowart.com instagram @gypsy999 and @indexcardaday More about how ICAD works at daisyyellowart.com/vividlife/icad-welcome

Thank you Jennifer -- I bet you'll surprise yourself this year!

Thank you!!! 💚💚💚

Thank you Nathalie! I have been making more videos in the last several months but writing @ the blog is still my focus!

Just focus on a day at a time, you'll do great!

Love this challenge!

I hope this will open up your creative ideas as it has for me. Some prompts are challenging for me but I decide with each day to go with the challenge or morph it into something else more exciting to me. This way of practicing ideas using the elements of art is so much fun and takes me away from gettin ho-hum in my regular art practice opening up all kinds of creative possibilities.

Thank you Debbie! 💚

Becky, let me know how it goes -- the post over at the blog has more info if curious!

I find grids such an intriguing and inviting structure -- enjoy your #6 round ---> happy painting!

Caroline, Thank you for the kind words! I'm quite enamored with these experiments!

Ellie, What a cool way to look at it -- as tiles! Thank you!
