day #365 - the end of an era

I thought I was on top of it; I had finished early and was looking for a movie to watch already 3 hours ago. And I don't know how time went by. A phonecall, some networking studying, some online shopping and here we are, already past the time for an early movie. Regardless, today is a special day. The blog is over! I finished 365 days of daily painting and recording it, whatever that means. A big part of the process I will have to keep doing mainly for myself.

day #103 - uninspired practice



Posture and gesture practice had been satisfying; and I guess that's pretty much all of it, I did it in excess today! The bottomline is that this has been an iteration building on my previous days understanding, some realistic complex contortions and finally some doodles where there is a funny scene I will name now "Aladdin flies to a Buddhist temple!".

On the flip-side, I was considerably tired and unenthusiastic today, and though I did extensive practice I didn't have the energy and speed that I had yesterday. I''m happy that I've "evolved" enough to be able to see that not all days are equal, and that this is not a sign of failure.
