Daily Doodle Diary - 2021 #6
Added 2021-05-28 10:14:22 +0000 UTCHello lovely people,
How are you all?
I'm sorry it's been so long since my last Daily Doodle Diary batch, I didn't do very well with keeping up with it during April and May.
My motivation for it waned and I found it more of a chore than a pleasure, so I took a step back from it and worked on what I enjoyed instead, such as the big paintings, as well as few smaller ones I will be sharing with you soon.
May is also a tough month for me every year, as it is my birthday as well as the anniversary of the death of my mother (within a couple days of each other), so my mental load was heavier than usual and I tried not to add to it unnecessarily. I turned 30 this year, which is also a milestone in itself, and I felt the absence of my mother stronger than usual this time also.
I am now in a little more stable a mental place, so I will be trying to pick the habit back up in the next few days.
Here are the few sketches I did manage since my last batch. I fell back on studies rather than original concepts as I was low on creative energy, which is a good way to get some drawing in without the strain of having to come up with ideas.
Somehow though, my fav is probably 29! I don't know why but it appeals to me in a weird way.
Do you have a fav from this small, eclectic batch?
I'll have some new sketches to share soon, but in the meantime, let me know how you are doing!
I hope you are well and happy,
Take care!
