Earlier this year, I started a series of posts called "10 Daily Illustrations". The concept was derived from James Altucher's "10 ideas a day practice".
I enjoyed doing those exercises because it challenged my mental faculties! Plus, I also had the chance to tap my inner child and play with a bunch of designs.
(my most viewed daily illustration is the 10 variations for a cactus design)
Because my artblog looks so barren, I decided to migrate the concept there and start anew!
Thoughts to Ponder
Give yourself the freedom to create with worries. There's a reason why the "Edit" button was created.

New Art Blog!
Hola!
For the nth time, I started another blog/artblog/sketchblog called Nurjean's Sketchblog.
Very unoriginal title, I know.
It's a product of reading Julia Cameron and my experience as being a resource speaker during The Rock's Junior Staff Exam. I had the privilege to be represent the Rock Fossils' Art department and share my knowledge about taking the exam and creating art.
Truth is, I dreaded it...giving that talk.
Now, I dunno if I can consider it luck, but only ONE person appeared.

Yep, ONE.
I immediately changed my strategy and decided to have a one on one talk.
The other rockers gathered around and we had a little sharing....
and that sharing rekindled the tiny flame I harbored for the visual arts.
What if.... what if I tried again?
I was reading Julia Cameron's The Sound of Paper, and I think she had a little hand in helping me try again.
I have nothing to lose.
Failure is just not trying.
And the least I can do is just try!
