Anita Aspfors Westin of Rättvik, Dalarna, Sweden is creating 365 zentangles!
Why did you decide to do this project? I decided to do this project now because I need to. I made a project 3
years ago with collages and assemblages. It was great, though I had some
trouble to make it to the end. I moved from Stockholm during the year
and that made me take some breaks. I have missed doing a project for
some time now so I am ready for it. I started doing zentangles because I
thought it would be a good idea to let my students try this. Well I was
sucked myself in zentangeling so then I got the idea to make this in a
project. It is fun and relaxing and it suits me to make something that
is easy to do but make it regularly.
How has doing a yearlong/daily project affected your life? This
question I think I would answer when this project is finished.
The
project Collages and assemblages I started 2012 and finished 2013 affected my life in several ways. I made new experiences of
different materials. I learned about myself, about my limits and I found
more freedom in my own work as a painter. Yes in fact my personal touch
in my work is more obvious today because of that project. My studio
contains a lot of other stuff than before! My stress-level is under
control now and my focus is much more in the work I do. I guess that
means I will do some more project after this one I´ve just started!
