    Hi Joshua,

    What a gift you have prepared for me by the end of my challenge! I am really grateful for this! Even if usually I am a self-motivated person I truly appreciate every piece of advice and encouragement concerning my drawings and sketches!

    I have watched the whole video and thank you for your time and comments! These were fast sketches (2-3 minutes) from life so I cannot attach a reference, but I understand what you mean when you are speaking about adding more structure and boxiness which should help a better communication of the sense of a pose.

    It was not easy for me to finish this challenge because of the carpel tunnel syndrome, but I am happy I have done it till the end.

    Thanks to the 100-day art challenge I have discovered that I can draw every day and progressing in art skills despite of a big workload and all the family around me due to the lockdown context 🙂

    I completely agree that the more we learn the more is to be learned… So I hope that after a small break I will come back to learn more from NMA.

    Thanks again!

    Erik, you are so kind, your help and advice were very very useful! I have watched all the videos you have sent me and am trying now to install a daily hand workout inspired by them. Fortunately I have already started to hold a pencil in a suggested way 2-3 weeks ago, so I am ready to continue working with a better grip. Just need some time to recover now 🙂 thank you again!

    Thank you, Joshua! By now indeed I think I feel myself like a child who wants to try everything and doesn’t have his one style because she is still learning. I don’t think that I will cope with it in one week that I have to finish my challenge, especially when I can work only with my left hand. But even if I am not somebody who is progressing in one, visible and straight way, I am still grateful to NMA for the opportunity to come back to the art practice through the courses and this challenge.
    I have got now a habit to draw every day and for an amateur artist I spent a lot of time on anatomy studies that I would never do without this challenge. Of course, there are still many things to learn, to unify and to progress in, and I will continue working on it…

    Hi Lizzomatic! Thank you for your kind comment! I have not followed the watercolour courses of NMA yet, only some figure drawing courses… as I am self-taught in watercolour so it would be good to follow a course specialised only on this topic. This summer I decided to go through figure drawing first and than to spend some more time on portrait. There are so many courses here 🙂

    Day 90:

    it’s a pity but it seems that I have lost the command of my right hand for a while… Today I have drawn with my left hand but I don’t know what I will do tomorrow.

    I have a carpel tunnel syndrome now and it hurts to draw… so today i am trying to paint movement without pencil… here is the result:
