Welcome Viewer

The aim of this blog is to help me achieve my goal of doing one sketch/doodle a day for a year. When starting this blog, I am on day 43.

I will spend no more than 2 hours and no less than 5 mins on each piece.

I will try to do my best to vary style and subject matter in the hope that this will help me become a better artist. All relevant feedback is welcome. :) Wish me luck!
