Heading into my art room today, my goal was to stay true to the 5-minute aspect of this challenge. I love the idea of not over-thinking and fussing around with mountains of stuff cluttering my workspace. Armed with black paper, chalk pencil, Posca and gel pens, and a Micron, I set the timer and started in with the chalk pencil, aiming for simple and minimalistic. (Note to self: test and prime Posca and gel pens BEFORE starting the timer.) A-l-m-o-s-t succeeded. 🙂

Old hometown (Cleveland) newspaper from 1987, my Dad’s old printing set of rubber stamps, scribbles in acrylic and oil pastel, and lots of play.
