100 Day Art Challenge: Just Make Art

Challenge: I will draw something everyday for 100 days. My daily drawing could be an exercise for an NMA class I’m taking. It could be a totally random sketch I do for fun. It could be good. It could be bad. But I will draw something everyday for 100 days.

Why: I have absolutely no background in visual arts, work in a field unrelated to art, and never progressed beyond drawing literal stick figures but I signed up for NMA on a whim. I’m challenging myself to learn to draw in 2021 and simply want to build a consistent daily practice routine. I’m currently working through the Beginner’s Drawing Course and am excited to work on the Russian Academic Drawing course and Steve Huston’s Constructive Figure Drawing courses in the future. I’m also forcing myself to get over any fear or shame of sharing my beginner level art.
