100/100 🎉- A moment to rest
I read that one can reliably expect a dopamine crash after an accomplishment, and sometimes it feels like a mood crash, or anxiety, or worse, it doesn't feel like something in you changed but it looks like it's the world around you. I've felt it in the past but I wasn't quite aware of the pattern. The good thing about identifying it is that one can prepare for it, and I'm trying to prepare for this one, I think it's going to be fine.
This is the longest consecutive challenge I've done and it was really nice to see the drawings change and get more complex. There is also a delightful fluidity that comes with drawing every day, which is probably what I enjoy the most. Also, writing itself became an important part of the project that I didn't envision at the beginning. Writing doesn't come to me as easy as drawing does, but it still feels like an important exercise and it was very encouraging to hear that it was enjoyable for most of you.
One important goal that I had at the beginning was to create a daily routine for myself to keep me sane during the shelter in place period, and well, I think it did the trick for me. It feels pretentious to say it but I also hope it was helpful to you, even if just a little bit.
Thank you so much for supporting me on Patreon! This is another part of the sanity sustaining structure and I really cannot tell you how much I appreciate it. Your likes, comments, emails and words of encouragement were also life sustaining, thank you.
I'm going to take a short break and over the next few days I'll post an updated list of the available drawings. Today's drawing is 3.5" by 4" and it's available here(sold). I haven't decided what will be the next Patreon project but I'd love to get your opinion once I have some more concrete ideas.
Talk to you soon and stay safe :)
Federico.
