Today’s TDC asks us to:
You and your favorite book. Combine that pair into art. We want to know the title of the book.
Use text and images; parts of the story; your emotions and drive to read that one.
I chose Alice in Wonderland – one of my many favourite books. I searched for Tenniel’s illustration and photoedited Lacey cat’s head onto the cat. Quick and dirty.

Today’s TDC asks us to
Use the Portent Title Generator to randomly generate a title about DS106…then WRITE THAT POST!
So I did. Amusingly I got this prompt

Amusing, that is, as I usually complete the activity soon after it is published at 10am my time, but today I’ve been caught up in meetings and with workmen, so have only just sat down to look at it at 3pm.
Anyway – here it is. Another post from me talking about how I love to do the Daily Create every day because it stimulates my creative mind and helps to take me away from the daily grind. And because practice doesn’t make perfect, but it does make better.

Today’s TDC asks us to
Make a digital photogram without the need for special paper or chemicals.
It’s a busy day here, with work and also a wee guy painting the house, so I knew I’d need to cheat to do this one. I found some black card and sketched out an owl, cut that out and photographed it on top of some printer paper.

Then I uploaded it to Lunapic and used the negative filter to make a photogram

One Recipe for Creativity
Take:
One cat
One cup of tea
And one Daily Create
And mix together
Do not shake

Time flies and it’s already nearly the end of November, so time to start making and posting this year’s Xmas cards.

I love the sky at the moment. Although today’s TDC asks us to take a pic of our sky today I am starting this post with one from last night

Followed by one from 8am this morning as I pulled the curtains

And then one an hour later at the bus stop

And finally one of St Brides as I got off the bus half an hour later

Later that morning the clous came down and now the skies are overcast, so I am glad for my morning wander.
Today’s TDC asks
Everyone dreams, but some of us have weirder dreams than others. Think of the strangest dream you’ve ever had, and then put together an image that illustrates what happened.
I’ve been having lots of similar dreams recently about about being lost, spinning around, and not knowing which door I should go through. So I headed over to Nightcafe and gave it a prompt of:
A grass lawn surrounded by houses with brightly coloured doors. Everything is spinning in a vortex

Once I had my image I took it over to Lunapic and used their kaleidoscope filter to make this gif
