Week 1 – Satisfactory Start

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

Well, it looks like I’ve survived this experiment for a week now, and I think things are going okay. I really would like to move away from just doing drawings and doodles now and try to produce some more prints or paintings.

Now, I want to clarify that I’m posting EVERYTHING that I’m making, whether if it’s crap or not. I want everyone to see the progression of going from 0 to 60 (or 365 in my case). This is just not a showcase of my art, but hopefully a tool to let people know that there is a lot more going on with the artistic process than they may think. Well, at least with my artistic process.

Any suggestions and criticisms are more than welcome. Please don’t feel shy, if an artist can’t take criticism, then they are certainly not the the correct field.

The Beginning – September 17, 2009

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

Today is day one of my attempt to create one piece of art a day, for 365 days. It might be as small as a sketch (most will probably be this) or something as large as a full painting, but there will be something posted daily. I know of a couple of times in the next year where this may get to be tricky, from being out of time, and other engagements, but I will post. It might be only a photo of the sketch, instead of a scan, but it will make it online.

So, I hope you enjoy what I’m attempting to do, and follow my daily trials as much as you can. Also, please feel free to comment on what I post. I’ll need the feedback.

Thank you for your time!
