indieVISUAL Journal challenge

I know several friends who have started the 365 photography project- where you essentially take one picture every day for a year.

I know two people on YouTube who are making a video every day this year in order to document it.

The website dailybooth essentially is for taking a picture of yourself every day for a year (or more) and while I’ve been on it for over a year, I have somewhere around 230 pictures taken, so obviously, I’m not good at boothing daily.

The indieVISUAL Journal Challenge is one where instead of keeping a journal and writing the days events in it, you draw a picture of the days events each day.

Admittedly I there have been a couple of days so far (and it’s only the 8th day) where I have been too tired, or not in access of my sketchpad to do my drawings, but I have every single one done. It’s a project that I’m looking forward to, especially when I get more time to sit down and make really decent drawings, or maybe even paintings.

So far they’re kind of poo-y, done with a sharpie pen, pencil, and colouring leads, but I like the idea of this project, and I want this to be something I apply myself to. I used to draw so much in the past, now it’s taken the backburner. I have no interest in just doodling anymore. So maybe this will remind me of how I used to be.

Here are my drawings for so far. Instead of loading them to my tumblr everyday, I think I might just post them here every week- even if more action for my Tumblr seems like a good idea.
