day #365 - the end of an era

Image
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. Perhaps taking daily photos of my work and saving it on some folder. This has provem useful many times when I trying to date a piece I've been working on. Also making a small diary of today's achievements. It's still useful. But this will be done for my eyes only. I also don't know if I will be continuing my obsessively daily painting. How would life be if I had days off? Now for example that I'm moving out and I have to daily chores that until now were completely taken care of, perhaps I'll allow my

day #234 - Revolution Calling!

So this the most radical post ever. It's already 6am and I haven't resized and uploaded the image and there have been quite many today, so in a radical move I decided not to upload them right, and leave the post text only. It was a fun day, I did some pictionary doodles with some friends on zoom, and later on did some freestyle doodles. I like lots about it. The dog, the cannibal, the foxdog following the trail, the top-bottom voluptuous woman, the faces with the intense noses, the little spaceships, it was all good. What I will keep about today is two things: The kindness towards myself for not pushing me to finish uploading the images tonight in a ritualistic empty fashion, and the fact that today all my practice was doodles while I was on video call which is as relaxed and mindless as it gets! The extra thought of the day is the fact that I did numerous sheets which I normally avoid since it needs much more work in uploading the images, but then again, images that would otherwise be lost in a corner of some gigantic sheet now are taking their space. This also helps with composition so there is no excuse for making the composition unbalanced.
