Maria Elder in Richmond, Virginia is "uncovering" 365 Smiles...
Why did you decide to do this project? I saw it as a challenge to discipline myself to stay with a project. To get out of a creative quagmire.
How has doing a yearlong/daily project affected your life? Today at breakfast my kids were fighting over who gets the pancake with the blueberry smile. I said "Yeah, I guess you all better get used to seeing smiles all over the house." My 16yo said "Well, isn't that the point?" Well, actually no. The point was never about The Smiles, but about the dedication needed to uncover one everyday. But. But finding smiles in unexpected places on unexpected days has been a huge bonus.
