    Doodle 96: Alphonse Muka, iMac Giveaway, Live Stream

    Hi, friends, streaming my thoughts for a second and trusting that I have a doodle 96 to write. Sometimes the ideas don’t come right away. But given the right inspiration and genuine fun, then something gives way. For example, I had many thoughts in the morning pages, like getting back to my friends or looking up a famous artist Alphonse Muka. Alphonse’s was recommended to me when I was discussing my need to build out a Twitch overlay. Therefore, I found Alphonse and his paintings series, Times of the day, for the doodle 96.

    Doodle 92: Late Hate, TV and Food, IINYC with Twitch, and Rock

    Hi, friends, every evening, I’m doing the late hate or going to bed at midnight for the doodle 92. It’s like that for several days now, and I have some ideas. For example, we will use a calendar and indicate with a star when we do not follow the rule. Then at the end of the month, each person will have a balance, and the one with the most stars will buy dinner for the next two weeks. Initially, we were planning to use it for waking late, and I want to see if we can use it for both events. Therefore, I hate going to bed late, and I want to do something about it for doodle 92.

    Drawing plan 90: Journal Emotions, Collect Info, and OBS Overlay

    Hi, colleagues, yesterday, for the drawing plan 90, I came up with two ways to control my emotions when somebody upsets you. For the first set, i will focus on the self, and then in the next paragraph, you will get additional advice on approaching the person. For example, whenever you feel angry, write down your thoughts and acknowledge that your upset. Then, understand that anger is a sign that something is not right. Meanwhile, do not, under any circumstance, negatively act on your anger. Besides, giving additional offense on top of anger has a nasty multiplier effect. In the end, what you need to do write down your positive ideas. Thus, let’s try to control our emotions for the drawing plan 90.

    Drawing plan 89: Art Flow, Art Narrative, Inside the Gila

    Hi, creative individuals, for the drawing plan 89, I wrote my morning pages, and I came across a way to create flow for my art. Last night, I wrote in my journal about not having any fun while illustrating. Also, I’m focused on fundamentals, and it’s draining me. While I was writing, I asked myself how to find a way to enjoy the creation process. For example, I love to make morning breakfast. Besides, I enter everything into Cronometer for nutrition tracking. Therefore, I’m considering illustrating cooking and nutrition topics to improve my art flow for the drawing plan 89.

    Drawing plan 84: Algorithmic Artwork, Transcript, and AANYC

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 84, yesterday, I met with my friend Steve over Zoom to discuss Algorithmic Artwork. During the event, the most challenging part was keeping the conversation natural and free-flowing. Such as not interrupting each other with our questions or getting too excited. Meanwhile, the best part was watching my friend show me the tooling. For example, love his use of Rhino, NetLogo, and Zbrush. Therefore, for the drawing plan 84, let’s start algorithmic artwork illustration.

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 82, I’m thrilled to discover journals and status updates on the DeviantArt website.

Using part of my blog post, I create a small preview of what I wrote here and add that as the journal on DeviantArt. Thus, for the drawing plan 82, DeviantArt has many exciting features, and I’m yet to discover them.

    Drawing Plan 79: Julie Cameron, Wacom, and Aspiring Artists

    Hi, friends for the drawing plan 79, I was thrilled to spend my morning going through Julie Cameron’s book. She is the lady who wrote the book The Artist Way, you know, for creatively blocked people. I also cleared chapter 4, which had lots of interesting points. Such as the morning pagings eliminate ambiguity and score you clarity. Also, in the end, she gave us some questions. For example, she told us to answer them quickly as a lightning bolt would hit the ground. Therefore, The Artist Way is an exciting book to read for the drawing plan 79.

    Drawing plan 78: Buy Desires, Art Community, and Monadrock

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 78, my mind is fixated on deciding to buy a new tablet. Also, I’m waiting around till Black Friday in hopes of a fantastic price reduction. For example, wouldn’t it be great if I could get the 32 inch Cintiq for 25% off on Black Friday? Think of the savings? Plus, throw in an Ergo stand, and you are a rich person. Of course, I don’t need them right now. I want them because I work hard, and I think I deserve a better drawing experience. Therefore, I’m stuck thinking about whether to buy or not for the drawing plan 78.

    Drawing plan 77: Terrytown, Lyndhurst, and Aspiring Artists

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 77, yesterday we traveled to Terry Town and had a good time. For example, the town has a lot of history. Also, it’s known for it’s a headless horseman and historic Cemetery near the Sleepy Hallows area. While I don’t grasp the story behind headless horseman, the Cemetery was interesting. For example, a friend of mine told us a story of a stone carving of an angel whose popularity rose and suddenly fell. For instance, many people wanted to mimic and have that angel represent them in some way. Such as a statue for a burial. Besides, the angel’s inspiration, whose artist chose the face, was a dancer who gives special services to men. Therefore, I enjoyed the stories at the Cemetery, so let’s travel more to Terry Town.

    Drawing plan 75: Flexible, Careful and Aspring Artists

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 75, I wanted to purchase a new artwork tool. I was on OfferUp setting up my shop. Then, I got an idea to search for a new Wacom Cintiq. After messaging a few people, I realized I shouldn’t ask for advice if I’m not ready to purchase the item for the price point. Also, I was hoping that chatting would convince a lower price. After all, I learned something about myself. Before asking, think about my goals because your question will affect many people. Therefore, think before you leap into the drawing plan 75.
