100 Days! Done!
100 Day Project Day 100 I feel like I have accomplished something, but pinning down exactly what that is is a little more difficult. In terms of numbers, I have definitely made art every day for 100 Days, and posted a blog every day for 100 Days, but those are just numbers, and the things…

Page After Page
100 Day Project Day 99 My hands are covered in paint and various mediums, and there are all sorts of art supplies spread out on every available surface, and my paint water jars are disgusting, and I have been working in my sketchbooks for around four hours, maybe more. I did have half an hour…

No Time Still Arted
100 Day Project Day 98 A busy day with visitors today, so not much time for art. This is especially challenging when it’s day 98, so to break the streak now would be disappointing. With around twenty minutes for an art session, I grabbed one of my 6×8 watercolour blocks and grabbed supplies at random…

Filling Pages
100 Day Project Day 97 Continuing the Sketchbook Project of finishing my current A5 spiralbound sketchbook the same day I finish the 100 Day Project, I had the target of filling four pages today, and what do I do? Yes, I start flinging wet materials including modelling paste at the first spread, which means waiting…

Operation Sketchbook
100 Day Project Day 96 I’m still thinking that it would be affa fine to finish one of my sketchbooks alongside completing the 100 Day Project, so I’ve put little page markers in the book to mark out how many pages I need to fill each day to get it done. It’s basically two spreads,…

Things Can Only Get Better
100 Day Project Day 95 I confess I relished the rain as it pished doon on Rishi as he stood at the lectern in Dowing Street trying to big up his shite party while announcing the worst kept secret of the day, that a General Election is called for July 4th. Someone was at the…

From Dust
100 Day Project Day 94 I had this idea that I was going to spend the last ten days of the 100 Day Project focussing on filling the last portion of the sketchbook I have mostly been working in. Almost as soon as I decided that was what I was going to focus on, I…

One Man and His Beard
100 Day Project Day 93 Mister Beard is finished. There’s a lot of things I could pick apart, but on the whole I am happy with this. I do not play with my watercolours often enough, so this was good practise. I’m happy with his shiny bald head 😀 Til the morn, Suzanne

Big Bear Big Brush
100 Day Project Day 92 I really wanted to nail this today, but I’m stopping to let the paper rest before going in to fix the eye, and finishing up. It’s hilarious to me that I am avoiding like the plague another class piece because it’s watercolour, and yet I’ve dived in with this one…

Beard Profile
100 Day Project Day 91 These drawings are both from the same reference, and it’s interesting the way they differ from each other. The first is small, in my A5 sketchbook, drawn using an HB mechanical pencil. The reference photo was in colour on my PC monitor, and quite small. The second drawing is on…

Blending Skills
100 Day Project Day 90 I can’t believe I’ve made it to Day 90 without missing a day. I was not expecting to get it quite so successfully in the bag. Go me. I randomly picked up my copy of Austin Kleon’s gem of a book, Show Your Work, which I highly recommend. I haven’t…

Mixed Day
100 Day Project Day 89 Something I dislike is being interrupted when I am in the middle of something, and this also means that on days like today, where I know there is a delivery due at soime point, and I even know it will be late in the day, I just can’t settle to…
