Some Things I Need To Remind Myself Daily Tbh

If you don’t pray often, you won’t gain a love for praying. Prayer is work, and therefore it is not very appealing to our natural sensibilities. But the simple rule for prayer is this: Begin praying and your taste for prayer will increase. The more you pray, the more you will acquire the desire for prayer, the energy for prayer, and the sense of purpose in prayer.

30 Day Art Challenge: Draw all the things

My first challenge, Improvement Hell, was a way to inspire people to draw different things different ways, drawing outside their comfort zone, and most of all to draw every day. I had a few people ask for a follow up. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the sequel: Draw All The Things

Each day has three prompts. Some are specifics, others are vague, but all are geared to spark your imagination and inspiration. Take from them whatever you want. Design a character, an illustration, a collage. Singular or plural. Literal or symbolic.

Casual Mode: Pick and draw one prompt each day

Normal Mode: Combine and draw two prompts each day

Hard Mode: Combine and draw all three prompts each day

Tag your artwork #Draw All The Things for others to follow and be inspired!

close every window, never touch the tablet pen ever again, it’s over.

Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate every +Like I can get, but to be honest +likes don’t do shit for an artist. No one will look through your +likes except you. If you really like an artist give them some exposure, yknow? We work really hard and will appreciate any feedback we can get!!

So I’ve been tag to this amazing idea. I thought you lot should join. This should be fun! karukara kendrawcandraw liamstolenboxers louwie otp-hedgefrog sirental nyodo mistahlevi akisdoodles cyrilliart @fayestardust Joining in on the fun! Here’s how it works: Draw a picture and hide it somewhere. Take a photo of either the art or the hiding spot or a combination of both. Post the image, the city you dropped it in, and a hint on any social media of your choice. Be sure to include the hastag- #artdropday. Then move on, hoping someone finds it. OR hang around and meet your friend. That’s it! Please share the word #artdropday I hope you all join in, it will be so much fun!

I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn.
