I have a question. Why a collage a day for a year?

Ah, the only question I never anticipated.

Well, I decided I needed to do something daily so that I could get into the habit of doing something as a habit. I also wanted to commit to the daily thing because I tend to do nothing when I feel uninspired and want to see what can come out of working thru those periods instead of filling that time with episodes of Dog The Bounty Hunter.

I decided on collage because I loved to collage as a kid. Then, after I’d decided to collage, a landscape architecture student friend of mine told me about the method of thinking about a project while collageing to open the mind to different ways of approaching it. When I heard that I was very excited to approach all different types of ideas thru collage.

It also allows me to rationalize my subscription to US Weekly.
