Should You Draw Things You Hate?

No! I mean yes! Well, maybe… I dunno.

Three Hour Work Day Challenge: Day 6

Happy new year and welcome to the new twenties! As tradition dictates, I stayed up until midnight, had alcohol, and had a nice, quiet party at home. Didn’t drink too much, so I didn’t wake up hungover, but I did wake up with much little and much less quality sleep. STILL managed to get upContinue reading “Three Hour Work Day Challenge: Day 6”

Three Hour Workday Challenge: Day 5

Waking up at 5 am every morning is not impossible! I see that now! Day 5 of waking up at 5 am and dedicating at least 3 hours to working on art. Every day it feels like it’s getting easier.

Sick Days

Hey all, sorry for not having posted the last couple of days, but I got sick, so I couldn’t bring myself to wake up at 5 am like the original plan, let alone spend an alloted time on art. So I guess I really did fail the challenge, huh? Oh well. I passed the firstContinue reading “Sick Days”

7 Day Lazy Morning Challenge: Day 5: Merchantman

So… technically, I failed this challenge. I did wake up at 5, but then I went back to bed and slept for two more hours. The fact that I didn’t have to work today was sort of a de-motivator. Even so, I did get up at just a little before 8, which is still aContinue reading “7 Day Lazy Morning Challenge: Day 5: Merchantman”
