I'm celebrating a decade of consecutive daily art!

10 YEARS OF DAILY ART!!!

〰️

10 YEARS OF DAILY ART!!! 〰️

I just completed year 10 of my daily creative habit! Here’s what this past year looked like…

Every year on the anniversary, I share what all the years collectively look like too. And since most days I created more than one piece, it’s probably close to 5,000 images.

I started by creating in the margins. Stealing time here and there.

And soon enough momentum came.

Momentum brings habit and habit bring change.

I went from a 10 year art hiatus, to now 10 years of daily art.

Never underestimate small daily deposits.

What do you want to accomplish?

On episode 132 of Creative Chats podcast, I share some insights on what I’ve learned along the way these 10 years! Give a listen:

Here’s my collage of all 10 years of daily art… (kinda fun to look at!)

There are so many wonderful and unique creatures in this world.

There are so many wonderful and unique creatures in this world. Colors, textures, shapes... variety. I might not get to see many in person but knowing they even exist makes me appreciate the Creator all the more.

How often do you do things that stretch you? Avoiding pain or discomfort may keep you safe, but it will also keep you from becoming the person you should be. The real you.

Some days make you feel incomplete. Your own lack and neediness would love to convince you that you are not enough. It’s in those moments that the battle heats up.

Some days make you feel incomplete. Your own lack and neediness would love to convince you that you are not enough. It’s in those moments that the battle heats up. When you try as you may to muster the strength, to not react, but to believe. Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief. | art inspired by @jamiemarieduncan

As much as I joke about hating snow & winter (which i really do), the winter months really do mess with me.
