I am tired and I didn’t fit in any drawing today. That is incredibly rare for me. Drawing of some kind of one of the things I tend to not be able to go without, even at my busiest. But today was fairly non-stop, apart from a slow morning scrolling the internets.
I did fit yoga in, though, which I’ve missed for a good few days. I think, sometimes, perhaps you have to pick one or two things each day and spread them out throughout the week, rather than trying to nail every habit every day.
I did a ten-hour working day, though, which included three meetings and so I’m not going to stress about it. I am interested in the fact that I’m writing this, rather than drawing, though. I think I’ll definitely fit in some drawing in the morning.
The pattern here is a bunch of the ogees I created during an uncompleted 100 days project - I was drawing and posting an ogee and a piece of hand-lettered positive words. I think I lasted under 20 days. But it I loved doing both of them. I would really love to have the staying power to stick to a daily habit for longer than a month!
I miss pattern making. I need to find a way to thread more of it back into my workflow, because it is such a joyful creative practice.
