Day 12 of the Inchie challenge: Checkered. Final day of the challenge! I went back to a regular ol’ doodle. I used to doodle checkered patterns in the margins of my notebooks. I like this one on the painted background. #inchiechallenge 🎨

And here's a quick look at how I am gathering all my squares into a sort of smashbook. Lots of pages to finish.
It was my oldest daughter's idea and she and my granddaughter and grand daughter-in law have been sharing these each day.

3x3 hot press watercolor paper with green watercolor circle and world triad symbol.

Day 11 of the Inchie challenge: Three. Three is such an ancient number. This is based on the World Triad Symbol. One example of perfect balance in threes is the unity of mind, body and spirit. I also love the spiral motion inherent here. #inchiechallenge #three 🎨

#11 is Three
Since three's a crowd I only did two. 😆 🤣 😂

Day 10 of the Inchie challenge: Contrast. I went simple tonight. I had a beautiful blue background painted and thought of the full “snow” moon that peaked overnight into early this morning. It is cloudy and snowing here tonight, but the moon was bright and clear last night! #inchiechallenge 🎨

Day 8 of the Inchie challenge: Dots. I decided to do a little something different. I hole-punched some random dots, added another layer and colored that so that I could have two views when I rotated the top! #inchiechallenge #dots #mindfulartstudio 🎨

Hand-drawn business card with many pairs of underwear hanging from a laundry line.

Amy Maricle's #inchiechallenge continues. Day 5 UNDER

I just couldn't resist. It was the first thing I thought of. Usually, I create a relaxing pattern like zentangle but here it is, under the laundry line!
