I am a woman on a mission: to draw every day over the 77 days of summer before I return to the US for my senior year of college. That means 77 posts, 77 sketches.

This could either be super awesome or it could just be a slap in the face. I mean, I’m certainly not the most disciplined of folks, but I’ve got my sleeves rolled up to guarantee at least a fair fight with this self challenge to draw every single day.

This is something I’ve wanted to do for a really long time but I’ve never actually had the courage or the inspiration to attempt it. Now though I’m going to be starting my senior year of college (which means starting my senior project in Studio Arts) and I feel, in a word, stirred. I want to seize all this time and use it to make something tangible and creative.

I’d call it creative self-therapy. And I’m about to take the plunge. Tomorrow is Day One!
