Sorry I haven't been on in a while. I've been living in Venice, CA for the last three weeks. It's been great so far. Haven't done much painting yet. Once I get some work done I will post it.

Marathon: FINISHED

Journal Entry: Tue Jun 10, 2008, 12:37 PM
Thank you ALL for joining. Hope this has taught you something. For those of you who have completed 20+ drawings, congratulations. It takes a lot of endurance, time management and goal setting. These are key traits that will make you successful in the art industry (or even anything you plan to do in life).

For those of you with less then 20 posts, I fully understand if some of you were busy but it is still manageable. I did it over the school year during exam time (I strangely did better). Hope you'll join the next time and get more posts up to challenge yourself. Practicing daily is the only way for an artist to improve.

For myself, I realize I slack a lot more over the summer. I need to fix this habit and produce consistent artwork. Though I only had up 12 pieces I think I did improve a little, not much...but a little. Hopefully next time i'll be able to do 30.

It was a little difficult to keep track of all of you. I think for the next round I can only let in a certain number of people. Let me know your feedback and feelings on this challenge. Hope to hear something from each one of you. It would be nice to know, if it actually helped you and if I should continue doing these.



start date: May 12
end date: June 10

Why?
To promote more practice and to get into a habit of doing an illustration a day.

Crazy people who are doing this MARATHON?

30 DAY MARATHON: DAY 22

Journal Entry: Tue Jun 3, 2008, 2:10 PM
8 DAYS LEFT! it is DAY 22!

CATCH UP TIME. If you are as screwed as i am, feel free to rant :P

Let me know if you have more posts then what I have up.


I'll be keeping track of all your posts and I will have the number of posts that you have completed beside your icon (on this page) to see who's most up to date with the marathon. If you fall behind no worries , you can catch up. Remember to write DAY 1, DAY 2 in front of all the posts. This helps me to keep track of all your posts and for you to know how many you've completed.
Thanks again for joining, have fun with this and I can't wait to see what you all have up your sleeves


IT's GONNA BE EPIC!!!

The next 30 day marathon will begin MAY 12. Message me before that date if you are interested in taking on this ridiculous challenge. The more people that join the more fun.

I did this challenge last month and it really has helped me so I’m doing it again!!
When?
start date: May 12
end date: June 10

What?
Cg/Illustration a day for 30 days. Content can be anything of your choice. It has to be good enough to post up and for you to be decently proud of. no sketches.

Work must be posted as DAY 1, DAY 2 etc. to keep track of what date you are on. If you miss a day, post one the next day or make up for it between may 12- June 10. All artwork must be created in that time frame. At the end of the marathon you must have 30 days of illustrations and hopefully 1 or 2 of these illustrations will be portfolio worthy.

Why?
To promote more practice and to get into a habit of doing an illustration a day.
