An easy flowing drawing for today.  I had a much better night, and awoke feeling very optimistic.  

I'm surprised that the points on some of my brand new markers are starting to get a bit mushy.  I've been using the .3 mm for a while now.  I guess I need to change them out more often.

I had a bad night last night.  And yet, I had a good time drawing this.  But it's not my favorite drawing of all time.

I think that I'm at a place where it's hard for me to tell what effect these drawings are having on me on a day to day basis.  I know that when I started, I felt like I was doing something.  Now, sometimes, it feels like a chore.  And I know if I were to stop, I would miss it.  So I will keep going.  And I will look for the joy while I'm drawing.

This is the drawing that I took 30 minutes on last night.  I think I had some good ideas, and it was nice to take the extra time.  I could feel the difference.  But I was a bit daunted when I sat down.  How was I going to fill 30 minutes with drawing?  Once I started, tho, it wasn't too bad.

I was dreaming about birds this morning.  I think it came out in this drawing. 

I repeated that wavy line with the parallel lines within it from yesterday's drawing.  I find drawing that very satisfying.

Yesterday was such a dead day at work.  It was probably 3:00 before I did any store-related work at all, I was so bored. And I think my feeling seeped into this drawing a little.  Notice how it all goes nowhere, there's no focus.  

But I enjoyed making the picture, anyway.

Another pleasing drawing and session today.  I am seeing quilt ideas regularly.  Maybe sometime I will have time to follow up on some of these ideas.

I've been using a finer point lately, .03 mm.  I was using an .08 mm for a while there, but I like different things sometimes.

I really like this drawing today.

I sort of approached it in a bit of a panic because I had no good ideas in my head, or so I thought.

But those good ideas were in there somewhere.

I started this project to help me stay in touch with my creative self, which it is doing.  And because I thought it would boost my self esteem, and it really does that on those days when I'm satisfied with the drawing.
