95 - Accidentally And On Purpose

I was trying to be as accidental as possible with the ink on wet paper. But I changed this

To this

I thought she was a bit belletristic. That's a word I discovered the other day, meaning having no depth, just a pretty surface effect. I suppose the literal translation would be 'pretty artistic', except that it's a modern twist on a word which used to mean 'a person who writes in the style of belle-lettres' (beautiful or fine writing).

Also yesterday I painted this face out. Only because I'd messed it up. So another accident that became happy. Anti-belletristic.

Macmillan Cancer Support

This year I challenged myself to write one blog post per day, for 365 days. The project began on 3 March 2025.

I have linked this challenge to a charity fundraiser, because I want to look outside as well as inwards and contribute to society. It also holds me accountable and adds motivation to write everyday.

Macmillan is an organistation that offers powerful help to anyone (in the UK) who has been affected by cancer.
