  • Drawing Plan 88: New Tools, Health Mindset, Lighthouse

    Drawing Plan 88: New Tools, Health Mindset, Lighthouse

    Hi, friends while writing my morning pages and I thought about whether I should buy myself better tools for the drawing plan 88. For example, I have an old 2012 MacBook Pro and Bamboo Pen and Touch. Also, I’m not earning any income using the tools while I create artwork. Besides, some time ago, a friend of mine mentioned that I should buy what I need. Also, what will I do with the existing tools if I buy new stuff? I hate to promote waste. Therefore, I’m stuck thinking about buying myself better tools for the drawing plan 88.

    Drawing Plan 87: A better keyword, domain rename, Castleton

    I hate that I haven’t figured out a better keyword for the drawing plan 87. Even bringing up the hate word makes me cringe. Besides, where are my manners? I didn’t even say hello to my faithful followers. I also wish the keyword was shorter and subtle because it seems to stick out like a soar thumb. However, what I didn’t try to do is to search on the internet for recommended solutions. Therefore, let’s keep on the lookout for a better keyword for the drawing plan 87.

    Drawing plan 85: Willful AANYC, Subscribers, and Thumbnailing

    Hi, friends, I got stuck with a meetup with 140 subscribers for the drawing plan 85. Also, nobody attends the sessions in the last two weeks. However, I have a few ideas to try out before I give up on hosting Aspiring Artists Meetup. For one, I was thinking of locating followers of Reuben Lara and see if people use the Art DIET plan to improve their illustrations. Then, I can ask them if they are interested in helping me host. Afterward, I can set up a new time slot to run the meetup to give people more options to join. Meanwhile, I’m sending emails to the meetup subscriber list, so people are aware that we are doing events. Therefore, for the drawing plan 85, let’s not give up on Aspiring Artists Meetup.

    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.

    Drawing plan 82: DeviantArt, Mistakes, and AANYC

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 82, I’m thrilled to discover journals and status updates on the DeviantArt website. DeviantArt is a prominent place with many features and grows on you the more you use it. Upon learning, I used my question(s) as the status update because it’s important to me. 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.

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 81, I had planned to do a Zoom meeting with my friend to learn about art programming. However, it got postponed to Wednesday, and I prefer it to happen on a non-workday to focus on quality. Also, I need to spend some time going through our meeting’s outline to come up with a few interview questions. Therefore, let’s be excited about art programming for the drawing plan 81.

    Drawing plan 80: Final Fantasy, IINYC, Stubborn Artist

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 80, I convinced myself to have fun and play Final Fantasy 7 Remake after dinner. While playing, I realized that I made it to chapter 6. Also, I’m up to the part where I have to blow up reactor 5. On our way to reactor 5, we bumped into Roach, who tried to destroy us as we biked through the train tunnels. After the showdown, we made it to the top where reactor 5 hovers over sector five slums. I’m thrilled that I got to play a little while I don’t play games as often as I would like. Therefore, for the drawing plan 80, let’s keep playing Final Fantasy 7 Remake

    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.

    Hi, friends, for the drawing plan 76, I’m proposing on starting a new challenge. Also, it will have a few questions. Then, I will pass it to a few friends. Upon completion, we will all receive a badge with custom initials. However, I need some time to prepare everything and choose a few loyal bloggers who would like to participate in the trial. Hence, the road ahead is tough, but the rewards are great, so together, let’s go forth with the drawing plan 76.

    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.
