100 Steps

A song thrush started carolling at six this morning; it sounded so beautiful. There was no question of trying to go back to sleep.
I got up and wrote a lecture.
Afterwards, I remembered this game. Anyone can play it. It's a drawing game, but it's not about art: it's about noticing things.
You can play it on your own, or in a pair, or even 1000 people could play it.
You need a sketch pad and a pencil.
You walk 100 steps, stop, look around, and draw what you see.
You have 60 seconds to draw, then you move on, another 100 steps, and repeat until exhausted.
It's amazing what you see when you look. So much of the time, we have to blank things out in order to function.
Also, here is the new design for a badge (and more), drawn by yours truly, and designed by Ian Button. The album is almost ready to send off. I am so excited (and pleased with it!).
