How to Enjoy It

Make a tiny art station: sketchbook, painter’s tape for borders, two water cups, paper towels, and a scrap card for swatches. Open one door nightly, swatch the color, then do a timed mini: a thumbnail landscape, metallic letter, or quick portrait. On weekends, layer mediums—gouache base, chrome marker highlights—to see how they interact. Photograph each piece and finish the month with a 24-panel gallery post or framed grid.
