Today marks 1 month of drawing every day. Have I improved? Not much. But I can draw giraffes a lot better for sure. Probably because I spent a week drawing daily giraffes in socks for my friend.
I think I need to do another challenge like that.

Sketch book page featuring simple pencil sketches of a robin, a pair of shorts, a caracal and a dancer's leg. Beside each sketch (asides from the caracal) is a song name, the artist and the song's length. They are: Wynona's Big Brown Beaver - Primus (4:21) beside the robin; Queencard - i-dle (2:41) beside the shorts; Love My Like You Do - Ellie Goulding (4:13) beside the dancer's leg.

Every day I spin a roulette wheel of 148 animals. Whatever it lands on, I sketch that animal as best I can in the length of a single song. Today's animal was a robin.

Usually once I start drawing, I want to keep going until I've filled at least a page. Typically, I draw a variety of things.

Tried my hand at drawing a grey crowned crane today. Turned out better than expected, even if it's a long way from perfect. Spent around 20 minutes on this.
