#OadlProject365 - Day 31 - January 2023 Recap
31st Jan 2023
Wohoo!!! 1/12th of the way there. I made it through entire January creating and posting every single day.
For all those who are new here #OadlProject365 is my attempt to draw/sketch/paint/do art for at least 5 minutes everyday for 365 days. I posted about it in detail on day 1.
(Btw Oadl is an acronym for ‘Only A Decade Late’ which is my pseudonym in the www and the general story of my life!)
I made it through Jan and checked off quite a few of these :)
Drawing every single day even if it only for 5 minutes- Did way more than 5 min everydayBuilding a good habit/muscle - Since it’s a commitment of 5 minutes everyday, I LITERALLY can make no excuse- Has become kind of a habit nowGetting over perfectionism- I posted some quick not so great workGetting comfortable sharing my work on a public platform- See aboveHaving fun WITHOUT a burnout (have failed in the past with consistent blogging so want to keep this project easy and achievable)- Still need to work on this. I did get tired on a bunch of daysBeing able to see a trail of my work on day 365 to visualize my journey - We’re only on day 31/365 so this is WIP
The not so great news is that I lost a bunch of subscribers because I guess some people did not like receiving an email everyday.
So here’s the rough plan for Feb:
Take a little extra time to learn Procreate and digital drawing.
Draw every single day (atleast for 5 min), and post on substack, but probably not send a notification to the entire email list.
Daily posts will probably be more incomplete and WIP shots v/s finished items like in Jan
Send an update once a week with the accomplishments of the week
Let me know in the comments below what you think about this new updated plan!
For the life of me I can’t figure out how to upload a video on substack even though I did it last month, so here’s a link to my Instagram reel showing a recap of what January 2023 looked like.
And here’s some of my favorite pieces from January 2023
Thank you for reading! Please share with your friends that love art, are creative individuals or are simply trying to stick to a goal and need some inspiration. Every bit counts! :)
