geekery, drawing and then some
I did do some drawing today, just not the regular kind.
I wanted a handdrawn design on my website for quite some time, and then Michael Nobbs tweeted a site with a whole list of handdrawn designs. This of course meant I should get my act together and do it.
I spent the entire day doodling, and working with my graphic tablet. Soooo tired.
And so very happy with how it turned out!
I think everything works as it should, feel free to comment if it doesn't.
After a week of drawing I suddenly didn't draw for a few days. Not sure why, I just had all these other things to do suddenly. I decided to draw something I wanted to draw for a while, but thought would be too hard to draw.
Pretty satisfied with how Zoji turned out. I call him Zoji 'cause we're very good friends.
I don't know if I like drawing packages. I don't really hate it, but I don't really like it either...
Still under consideration.
For day 6 I drew my late evening food: a reheated portion of Wagamama's stir fried rice in my newly purchased bowl (which turned out exactly the right size, yaay!) I got a bit overly enthusiastic with the grains of rice, and drew them much too small but it looked so cool :D

Fourth day in a row and I drew my watch. I messed up the colouring a bit, but overall pretty happy with the result.
I played around with VectorDesigner and made a digital drawing for my daily drawing. Mostly an exercise in using my tablet and drawing vectors.
The second drawing in the challenge. It didn't go so well, felt distracted.
I did it, I made that first drawing! I drew my camera, because it was there. And it seemed patient.
Unlike my dog who tried to get in between my pen and my book...
I lost my drawing habit. I haven't done any drawing or doodling in ages. I miss it, and yet I spend more time cleaning up than drawing...
This morning in bed I thought how it takes a month to create a habit, so I figured I'd start drawing one drawing a day in april.
After I got up I thought 'screw April, start today!'.
So, as of today, for at least a month, I will make at least one drawing (no matter what) to kickstart my habit. I'll call it my '30-day drawing challenge'.
I'll keep you posted...
