UP!–Wow! It’s Int’l #DotDay 2019! :D

Every year there’s a touch of “creative magic” in the air ๐Ÿฆ„โœจ as International Dot Day approaches, this year on Sunday, September 15th. Since my first dot ๐ŸŸ  to celebrate the day back in 2014, when I had the pleasure of interviewing Terry Shay, the co-founder of Dot Day, I’ve gotten excited anticipating all the amazing, shared creativity worldwide and getting to see SO many DOTS! I’m also, as you would expect, a HUGE fan of Celebri-dots, a site where published authors, illustrators and celebrities post their dots ๐Ÿฅฐ ๐Ÿ˜Ž.

In 2015 I created a paint-happy Dot character ๐ŸŽจ who was then found reaching for the stars โญin 2016. When 2017 rolled around, I didn’t have time to take Dot on any new adventures, so modified a piece of artwork I had because I couldn’t bear not participating ๐Ÿ˜ฎ. Then, for Dot Day 2018, I had the GREAT honor of hosting THE creator of The Dot, Peter H. Reynolds, and his brother, Paul A. Reynolds, partners in creative “crime” at Fablevisionย ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฅฐ

Though life has been a whirlwind for quite a while, I didn’t want 2019 to go by without participating in this glorious day. Soooo…again, in lieu of something new, I recycled a little doodle of artwork and added a “Dot Day” twist (this may become a habit!):

I hope you celebrate, too!
