Usually I take a break by switching tasks. What I have lined up to switch to as I prep back-to-school documents is a somewhat more creative writing task: crafting reflection documents about the ALC events I just wrapped up.
This is the next ideal task. I love to make sense of fresh, recent insights just as the season that inspired them winds down. The problem is that I’m still waiting for survey results from event participants…and it’s summer so folks likely won’t have submissions for me soon. That’s fine. It’s a good season to move slowly.
In need of a different creative task, I doodled some cats. Then put them in a web store at https://society6.com/abicadabi/designs.
Hopefully, having shared publicly will help me make more art consistently this school year. My plan is to create 3 new designs each season — the rest will likely be more like my block print designs — and then start to rotate them out once I hit the web store’s cap. Expect lots of plants and cats!
