Day # 01
Theme: Anthurium
Time spent: 72 mins

Comments:
The event: i plan to mostly doodle this year

The art: so that said, idk why i put so much time into this piece. I mean, i know how it happened…. Art often goes through an ugly stage before it comes out the other side. And this one was in that ugly stage longer than I thought it’d be. XD So I just couldn’t stop
It can still be polished… but I’m done


And as to earlier: I’ve used Imgur for years and organize the 100 day art by albums. Forced app update on iPad earlier. I had to leave an album link here earlier… (which doesn’t work in img tags). No matter what option I picked, the app kept giving me an album link.
I just edited this post (hours later) from my phone. No forced app update. Got a direct link easy peasy.

Day # 02
Theme: purse
Time spent: 50 mins

User Image

Comments:
The cutest dog purse advertised to me. It had a bunch of leather strips to represent the mop of dog hair.
I saw the prompt, remembered the purse, and had to draw it.
After I was done, I looked back at the ad. I got a lot closer to the original photo than I'd realized. XD Good thing I purposely used different colors.

Anyway, this was another fail in terms of my goal (quick art) for this event.
Before I started, I knew that this fur wouldn't be quick... but I didn't think I'd spend 50 mins on this. I did a rough sketch first. This is inked. XD; And as messy as this is... I often drew the fluffs multiple times. I lost some of my hand memory. Still not satisfied with the fur I drew too sooo I'll just have to do more of that. And will. ... I haven't drawn much since last event and I feel rusty

Day # 03
Theme: off theme — DTIYS
Time spent: 42 mins

Comments: I guess I’ll stop commenting on the amount of time I spent drawing after this since I’m continuing to spend more time drawing than I’d planned XD

I saw this DTIYS and wanted to have fun… I studied the original drawing and then redrew the concept from memory, just playing with shape language.
Is this how I’d really draw this in my style? I mean, technically, it is what I did. XD But I don’t really like a lot of the decisions I made. So if I were really drawing this… idk… I’d fuss over the pose more. And shape language. That said, I’m okay with it. I don’t hate it
Anyway, it’s a WIP (obviously). Not sure if I’ll finish it. I added a second color just to show some of the shapes I would add in the flats stage, but not line

Comments: I started with the Balinese cat but I’d rather save that prompt for another day when more inspired. Today, I felt like mindlessly drawing

Day # 06
Theme: Onyx (Onix)
Time spent: 32 mins

User Image

Comments: I saw "onyx" and was all "teehee, I'll draw Onix (Pokemon)."
Maybe like half of the time (ish?) was spent trying to draw its face at an angle. XD; I didn't want to give up. I'd fix part of it and then some other plane would be off. On repeat. Struggle. It wasn't that important. I picked an "easy" draw on purpose... so I switched angles

Time spent: 1h 45m

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Comments: This was fun! Everyone had such neat ideas. It’s the first SC, so I wanted to draw for each one. Kept them all basic for sake of time

Day # 09
Theme: Art request continued (from day 4)
Time spent: ~30 mins

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Comments: felt like mindlessly coloring. I liked a couple of the prompts today and didn’t want to waste them on a day where I don’t feel like creating a concept. XD; So this worked out well. Still a WIP.

Day # 11
Theme: peacock and chalk
Time spent: 39 mins

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Comments: inspired by what I’d try to draw if I'd gotten the chalk out XD
Tho, technically, I usually use different colors of chalk. Now I wanna attempt a typical peacock out on a sidewalk, but man, that’d be such a mess (if I did)

I’m pretty sure the one I’m picturing in my mind was from last year, but idk.
