    Drawing plan 70: Bubble, bubble. Bow-wow. Buzz, buzz

    Hi, friends, today’s blog post, I was thinking about changing the bland name of the drawing plan 70. Also, it never grew on me, and it seems odd how it flows between paragraphs. Besides, I want something art-related, but subtle. Similarly, I admit I’m bored of using the keywords all the time, and I wish somebody would ask about it. Anyhow, let’s bubble over to the next set of the drawing plan 70.

    Drawing plan 69: Stoked stoked. Clash, clash. Mistakes.

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 69, I survived upper endoscopy. The wildest thing is anesthesia. I remember going out slowly as I lay on the operating table. Then when I woke up, I saw the nurse. Then, I asked the doctor how long was I out? He told me 20 minutes. When I came out of the anesthesia, I didn’t remember anything. The doctor also mentioned that he explained his findings, but I don’t remember him talking to me. In the end, I’m glad I’m okay and stoked for the drawing plan 69.

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 68, Aspiring Artists will meet at 8:30 am, and I’m excited to try something new. For example, I will ask the participants to assist in reading the materials. In other words, during the Art DIET education session, we will review the Reuben Lara’s education page. In the past, I read everything and tried to explain it. However, I will ask participants to be part of the guiding. Therefore, it will help with learning and ownership of the material. Anyhow, let’s yell over to the next set of the drawing plan 68.

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 67, yesterday, my feelings went back to normal. Also, I noticed that many of you send me likes on my previous blog post. Thank you for that. Besides, I was planning on visiting you all to see if I’m interested in the content you produce. My goal is to make new friends collaborate on projects, or even bounce off ideas. Therefore, I’m okay now; let’s bash on over to the drawing plan 67.

    Drawing Plan 66: Ooze, Ooze. Plop, plop. Pop, pop.

    Hi, friends, yesterday, for the drawing plan 66, I went skiing indoors at the American Dream and learned a lot from my friend. He told me the biggest problem is angulation. My form needs to look like a “less” than or “greater” symbol. Also, I saw that I’m leaning back sometimes. Leaning backward will force you to fall on your head. When I ski downhill, my edges don’t catch the edges, and my rear skids on the snow. Also, if I don’t correct my technique, I will slip on steeper inclines. Anyhow, let’s try to ooze over with the drawing plan 66.

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 65, I’m waiting for my friends to finish the Lake Placid Jumping Complex’s zipline experience. Interestingly the place was initially constructed for the 1932 Olympics. My friends are taking the gondola up and then zip tie down to the base. The ride is about one minute. Afterword, I think we will go to eat lunch or ride back home. Anyhow, let’s screech over to the next set of the drawing plan 65.

    Drawing plan 64: Achoo, Achoo. Ahem. Blurt, Bonk, Boo.

    Hi, friends, the other day, we all practiced body conditioning after our hike to Mt Marcy. For example, sleeping in was a side effect. Then, so was yoga stretches. I executed the poses robotically, not entirely, but too tired to resist not doing them. Also, a wholesome breakfast is undoubtedly part of body conditioning. Therefore, we took it easy to recover after our 1,629-meter hike of Mt. Marcy. Together, let’s blurt over to the drawing plan 64.

    Drawing plan 63: Lub dub. La Mumble, La Mumble, La Mutter

    Hi, friends, yesterday for the drawing plan 63, I did something a bit different. I completed the hike of Mt Marcy, which is the highest mountain (1,629m) in New York state. On the day of the trek, we woke up super early at around 4 AM. We had to get the parking lot because it fills up fast. When we arrived, it was still dark and cold. We turned on our headlamps and started on the trailhead. Anyhow, lub dub, waking up early for the trek, is a tremendous challenge for drawing plan 63.

    Drawing Plan 62: Boom, boo-hoo, boom. Crackle. Choo-choo!

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 62, while I wrote out my morning pages, I thought about my inability to write my blog. Then, this weekend, I’m going upstate to Lake Placid. Hopefully, that doesn’t give you the image like the movie. However, I’m worried about my regular routines. At one point, I spoke to Nenad from Dronstad blog about when he does his writings. He suggested that I write through the day and get bits of it done if time is an issue. Therefore, morning pages are no joke useful, so let’s boom, boo-boo over to the next set of the drawing plan 62.

    ~ Lake Placid ~

    For the drawing plan 62, do you ever get one of those days where you don’t have anything to write? Then, you start going to other paragraphs and writing what you know because it’s routine. Then, still, you need to come back and write out something. At least people will know you exist. Also, I was hoping that something substantial would hit me during my morning pages. I write to them in the morning to think about my concerns. I seem to be in a fog today. Therefore, let’s find a way to give each other good vibes and push through and crackle over to the drawing plan 62.

    Drawing plan 61: Hack, haha, hiccup, hiss, hohoho, honk, hoot

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 61, I went outside for half my lunch to get some vitamin D. During the pandemic of COV-19, we stay inside and don’t get much sun, and end taking supplements. I wanted to start a new trend for myself and go outside in the back yard, and give myself 30 minutes. After I got back from my excursion, I felt so much better and refreshed. Also, as a bonus, I got to draw boxes in perspective. Anyhow, let’s hack over to the next set of drawing plan 61.

    During my time outside, I thought about drawing plan 61 and applying it to rock studies. I started doing them so I can recall images and bring them into my drawings. As I wrote out my morning pages, I thought about trying to remember the shapes while I sit outside. Then, think about how to build them inside my head. After that, try to illustrate them on paper. Of course, I want to try to have fun, haha, and move to the next set of the drawing plan 61.

    Drawing plan 60: Waffle, wack, wallop, wham, whimper, whip

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 60, I thought about giving up Tuesday and Friday daily blogging. Once before, I brought it, but I didn’t which days. Also, I choose those days because each previous day is the start of many tasks. Then, if I give myself a break the next day, I will have an easier time. Therefore, let’s give Vye a break and waffle over to the next drawing plan 60.

    During the drawing plan 60, I think about how I can squeeze more juice for my rock studies. I want to ramp up to ten a day, so having more time will allow me to do a few more. Doing rock studies is vital to my growth because it will teach me how to break down shapes. In other words, I can identify what looks like a square or a triangle or even a circle. Then I can on top of that, and I can illustrate and work on the details later. Thus, let’s get more time to rock studies, and let’s wack over to the drawing plan 60.

  • Drawing plan 59: Fizz, flick, flip, flop, flutter. Glug, glup, groan

    Drawing plan 59: Fizz, flick, flip, flop, flutter. Glug, glup, groan

    Hi, yesterday, drawing plan 59; I worked on the usual items, but then I had to host Imaginative Illustrators, and that’s when I got hurt. My buddy’s car broke down, so I stepped up and took over the meetup. Everything went fine, but as I was drawing, I noticed that I was running low on inspiration. I ignored the feeling and tried to push through. Then, towards the second half, I felt empty inside and hoped that people in my group would give me a bit more love. However, it was mostly silent, so I quickly passed my turn to the next artist. Therefore, for the drawing plan 59, I was hurt, so let’s fizz along to the next step.

    Baby Spoon Driving to Hike

    While I wrote my morning pages, I thought about reducing the amount of drawing plan 59. In other words, I want to take two days off from writing these blog posts. Also, it will give me a chance to use the hour for illustrating. Additionally, I can use the other day to connect with my audience. For example, I can go on the WordPress reader, and see what you all are up too and try to connect. Thus, for the drawing plan 59, two days will allow me to reach you and improve my art, so let’s flick over to the next set.
