Five Things

I've been doing some catching up on blogs and thinking about my creative plans for this year, and here are five things that have caught my eye:
1. A series on photo organization on the Simple as That blog. Check it out here.
2. An art journal workshop with a prompt a week, sponsored by Journal 52.
3. A list of prompts for sketching. I found them on Danny Gregory's blog, but he describes them this way:
The EveryDay Matters Challenges were created by a great artist, Karen Winters who continues to post new ones on a regular basis. Thanks, Karen!
4. I became totally obsessed with the podcast, Serial. And it's led me to download many other podcasts. They've taken me away from reading, but at least I can do other things while listening to podcasts. Over at DPS, I found this terrific list of photography podcasts that I can't wait to check out. 
5. The "little moments" app by Fat Mum Slim and her photo a day challenge (I participate on instagram at #fmsphotoaday). I love that she's out of Australia; her happy, sunny color scheme; her quirky style; and the community of people who participate (I was happy/surprised to find many long time blog friend participating). Here's a link to where Chantelle announces its launch.

I've been obsessed with Serial as well -not just the podcasts but some of the blogs discussing it. Have you seen this one?

I've been "following" Danny Gregory since this summer when I enrolled in Sketchbook Skool, and I just discover the Little Moments app this last week, when I got a notification that I could pick it up for free. I'm really liking it.

The Serial podcasts look interesting. I'll have to look into that.

Some great links. I've bookmarked that photo organization one to come back to. Thanks for sharing it.
