Please join me in posting one a day. This is a challenge to encourage you to work on your craft every single day.

This is a thread for everyone. This is for you.

page:
2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | 25 | 26 | 27 | 28 | 29 | 30 | 31 | 32 | 33 | 34 | 35 | 36 | 37 | 38 | 39 | 40 | 41 | 42 | 43 | 44 | 45 | 46 | 47

There are no content requirements ( you can make whatever you want )
There are no media requirements ( you can make it however you want )
It can be something you've posted elsewhere.

It isn't about posting perfect work. It's about posting your work. It's a way to keep track. There is only a sense of accomplishment for making at least one new thing every day. As you create, you learn.

It's fine to ask for advice or critique. Please do not offer critique unless it is requested. Please use a link for Not Safe For Work (NSFW) images.

The only rule: post only what you have done today. Not yesterday or last month. Only today.


ps- for those who are shy. Don't compete with others. Compete with yourself. Do not be discouraged by others' success. Learn from them instead, and continue forward on your own path.

eyestrain-- Very nice flow

eyestrain-- Very nice flow and shapes, nice work on getting a sense of warmth across.

Janet-- That's awesome for a mouse drawing! I like the front hooves and the neck area a lot.

Matthieu-- It's probably coincidence but I like how brd's grey reoccurs in the design. I like the shadows in the lower area.

Munkel-- dreamy, warm colour choice. The ambience is great, I'd like to see what you'll do with this.

Wingeddeer-- That looks like a very complicated pose + perspective, nice work on that!

Sleepything-- I like the subtlety of your lines, very soft and flowy. It adds to the mood.

Track track track. I will

Track track track.

I will also try to post, but I may not make it everyday. *points at her already busy Artface*

Inspiring folks to draw everyday is noble, awesome, and really supportive of keeping the creative flow healthy and alive. I find a great respect for you encouraging people to do so!

I would like to try and give myself an hour of free drawing a day even though I have larger projects on my plate, this may be a great outlet for that.

You rock my socks.

Even a three minute sketch is a drawing. Even when we're tired and have worked hard all day, we can make a few more lines on the paper.
Thanks everyone. Let's go.

This is a wonderful idea; I'll definitely been keeping an eye on this thread! As for content, I just worked on this tonight of my main deer, Uruu. I wish I could say that this was a quick painting...but nope, for some reason it took me an hour, lol. Gah, I'm too slow! XD

Hushabye-- Really cool

Hushabye-- Really cool concept, I like the strong body shape. Don't know about critique, sorry.
Quadraptor-- Adorable! Lovely flower. Smiling Keep it up!
Anjali-- Very cute pose, keep going.
mini-- rofl my deer usually lack faces too. The legs look great.
ravynn-- Interesting luminating colours. Very distinct body shape.
Toya-- Very interesting concept and dynamic pose. The face is awesome.
Evanine-- Love the colours and those eyelashes.
Butterbrot-- For some reason I am in love with those antlers and the legs. Great work.
gurgelin-- I really like the painterly messyness. Black reminds me of thick tar. Keep it up.
Uruushou-- The facial features are very distinct, great work on getting down the differences between fawn and grown-up.
Matthieu-- Great shapes, I like the skull.

--Day 2
eyestrain-- Is that your character? The design is very distinct. I like the large hands and feet, as well as the oversized cloth.
Matthieu-- I really like that concept, I think it has a lot of potential for a bigger picture.

Semi-vent drawing as school is stressing me the heck out. Exams and homework are apparently really tasty to deer.

Anjali-- The green reminds me

Anjali-- The green reminds me of feathers. Keep at it!
Veegamer-- Great in character and flow, a strong silhouette.
quadraptor-- That's how I feel right now too. Sticking out tongue Awesome doodle.
Butterbrot-- You're very much velcome. I like the proportions in your new picture, particularly the bulky body in contrast to the small head.
Evanine-- Good to know. Smiling Your latest piece is amazing. So gentle, I like your brush choice. The sharp butterfly wings are great combined with the softness of the picture.
gurgelin-- You deserve it! That sketch is interesting, the angle looks complicated.
Starling-- I like your anatomy. The angle of back and neck do it for me, very defined yet still very elegant.

[e]: I've been thinking. Maybe to expand this to include other forms of art like poetry, or short writing?
