Reflections on the Sketchbook Challenge- Days 11- 20

Day 13

I'm 20 days into this challenge, and the craziest thing- I'm already contemplating my next challenge (more on that later)- I think I might need an intervention. What do you think? Meanwhile the yoga mat is somewhat neglected ;)

Days 17 & 19/20

Days 12, 11 & 14/15

What I'm noticing now:

• I'm wanting to take my sketchbook off the table, away from the camera and into the wild- particularly for the sketch of the house.
• I'm not good at painting kittens, which shouldn't surprise be since I've never done it before- we all have to start somewhere.
• I'm building confidence in what I can tackle (kitten above case in point)- just starting and giving it ago is the biggest gift to creativity.
• Showing up, pushing through and building up marks results in something.
• Mistakes get hidden or obscured by the end result, or they add character and don't matter so much in the end.
• Drawing takes up as much time as a painted journal page can.
• I love mixing mediums.
• I'm excited to see what's next.
• Some pages can stretch over two days ;) 
• I'm still playing with styles and ways.

Videos for each day can be found over on my Youtube channel here.

Day 16 & 18
