#6 - Not exactly what I had in mind, so not entirely happy with this.<br />
Should have pulled the purple into darker purple up into the second layer before transitioning into the dark blue. Too much dark.<br />

Finished just minutes to midnight. Still counts right?<br />
Didn't have much time so used the official Inktober prompt: "Long".<br />

Can this even be considered "art"? Acceptable for Inktober??<br />

Soooo much for me to work on/improve. Completely inferior to actual artists.<br />
Not sure if I can keep up with one a day, yet hoping to see progress by the end.<br />
<br />
Don't really have a set prompt. Following an old exercise I did in art class way back when - someone doodles one random continuous line and you have to draw a picture out of it.<br />
OH will be supplying the line, I do the rest. Obviously digital cropping/resizing and watermark.<br />
<br />
<img height="500" src="https://i.imgur.com/CS1erZk.jpg" width="358" /><br />
“Man alone measures time. Man alone chimes the hour. And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures. A fear of time running out.”<br />
- Mitch Albom, <i>The Time Keeper</i><br />
<br />
Glass portion extends beyond the top/bottom lip because that's the original random line OH gave me and I just drew around it. Oops?<br />
Let's see where this month-long exercise takes me. :O<br />

<br />
Once upon a time I used to art. But that was then, and this is now.<br />
<br />
Now I feel like I'm slowly deteriorating mentally. Any creativity I had seems to be slipping away as I age.<br />
<br />
For this reason, I felt compelled to revisit an old sketch (above).<br />
<br />
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/jmV9pPO.jpg" width="400" height="323"> <img src="http://i.imgur.com/ErTzeuU.jpg" width="400" height="323"><br />
<br />
The saddest being.<br />
<br />
Maybe I'll try my hand at some of my other old doodles. Maybe. <sup>I don't know what I'm doing.</sup>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993828109990570328.post-58950164492805468762016-12-04T10:00:00.000-08:002016-12-04T10:00:54.759-08:00Time Goes On<a href="http://i.imgur.com/Mqou4s1.png"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/Mqou4s1.png" height="376" width="1100" /></a><br />
<br />
Whelp. The end of the year is coming up and I figured that even though I failed at keeping my New Year's resolution to do one doodle a day for all of 2016, I might as well put some closure to this personal project.<br />
<br />
You may notice that the doodles dropped off around mid-October. In the end I burnt out. What was once a fun and lighthearted endeavor eventually became a chore. Work. And I lost the inspiration and the desire to doodle.<br />
<br />
Maybe in the future, if I ever decide to revisit Jimmy and SWG's world, I'll set a more reasonable pace for myself. I'd really love to come back and tie up storylines and expand on their world further. But one-a-day is just too strenuous for a novice like me.<br />
<br />
Aside from the massive disappointment in myself for not completing this project in its entirety, I'm grateful to anyone that's taken time to check out my doodles. Thank you!<br />
<br />
