Daily Doodle Diary #3

Hey peeps, 

Here are the latest drawings I did in my Daily Doodle Diary

I've been struggling a bit to keep up with it lately, because I have so much to do next to it, so a few days were done very late in the day, which usually means I just want to get it over with and have very little energy to do anything other than doodle.
But that in itself has been a learning opportunity. It has shown me that I actually do enjoy drawing even when I'm drained and exhausted, and that it actually helps me de-stress. 

Since art has become my job, it has been difficult to not associate drawing to working, which means it has been less and less something I have been leaning towards doing when I just want to relax and chill out, because I feel like it might stress me out and feel like work.
But strangely, having this doodle to do every day has helped me reconnect with the fact that drawing is simply something I enjoy doing, and that it doesn't have to be inherently connected to working. It's difficult to be put into words, but forcing myself to spend between 5 and 30 mins randomly putting pen to paper with no pressure to create something good, or original, or finished, feels a lot better than I thought it would. 

I still missed a couple of days, but I am proud to say that I am getting better, and I even managed to fit in some sketching while I was away for a wedding, in between waking up and getting ready.

I am truly loving this project. 

Day 7 is my favourite, Day 11 I want to turn into a painting,  Day 18 was really fun, and today’s went oddly wrong but that’s ok.
Which one is your favourite?









On another note, I have started my bigger acrylic painting, and will be posting work in progress shots soon. :)
I'd recommend checking out lenses or my instagram stories for in progress shots also, although I'll have a proper Patreon post with them all in it soon too.
(If you gave me your instagram username and I added you to my insta close friends list you'll be able to see all my wip and sketches I don't share publicly in my private insta stories. If you haven't gieven me your insta username, you can do so whenever and I'll add to my exclusive stories). 

On this note, I hope you are well,
Take care peeps!

PS : Question : Do you prefer when I embed the images in the post in between the text like I did above, or when I add all the images as a gallery at the top of the post, like I did in this post?

5 is very satisfying for some reason.

Embedded and day 11. Definitely, day 11.

Maybe she killed one and is using its head as a helmet? It made me think of the xenoshield in AVP. What a terrible-good movie that was.

Thanks Dominique! I do prefer them that way too :) I hadn't thought about the woman looking xenomorph-like but that is a good way to describe her!

I like the embedded pictures. I like a lot of the doodles, but the xenomorph woman in 17 is my favorite!

Oh, love that, thanks Sara!

Good to know, thanks Alexandra! I think I do too!

Oh cool! Those were late in the day, when I was literally just doodling...:) So they were probably more relaxed ^^

I like when they are embedded!

Alexandra

I think 10 and 11 have got to be my favourites!

Sara

15 and 17! *_* &lt;3
