**🍂 2026 Calendar Challenge – Week 11 (November)**
**Core Principle** – Each week, create one visual representation of the month. Any medium. Collage, paint, digital, found objects… doesn't matter. Emphasis on process, not product.
November – Theme: Gratitude & Roots
Prompt: *“What foundations support my creativity?”*
Examples to inspire:
- Crimson maples, shedding to reveal strength
- Deep red cranberries, gathered in thanks
- Wild turkeys, grounded and purposeful
- Native American art patterns, honoring ancestral creativity
**Optional Creative Exercise** – Write a gratitude list of 30 items that nurture your creative spirit. Then illustrate one using ink and gold leaf (or similar materials that feel rich and grounding).
As we move toward year's end, we acknowledge what holds us up – the unseen foundations that let our creativity grow strong. Each page becomes a tangible reminder of what sustains us through creation and beyond.
Let's honor November's gift of reflection and give thanks to the roots that feed our creative work.
