ICAD 2022

Here they are: all 61 index cards created over the past two months as part of the Index Card a Day (ICAD) project. I used the same materials as last year: 4×6″ index cards, collaged papers, acrylic paint and ink, tempura paint sticks, oil pastels, and various mark-making utensils. Visit my Instagram to see each card in more detail.

This project continues to challenge me, pushing me to focus on creating rather than judging or overthinking. And when you create consistently, with an emphasis on process over outcome and quantity over quality, magical things happen.

Looking Back: ICAD 2019

If you follow me on Instagram, you know that I’m a little over two weeks into this year’s ICAD challenge, Tammy Garcia’s annual index card creativity extravaganza (learn more about this two-month project here).

Today, I’m throwing it back to a few years ago, my second time around with ICAD, when I threw all the rules out the window and stumbled on a loose, intuitive, energetic mixed media process that I loved.

I always wanted to know what my “style” was, but it took letting go and playing for me to discover it.
