10 Awesome Things That Happened When I Drew Plants for 10 Days in a Row

I was craving art time after a particularly busy (and analytical) period, so I decided I’d make digital plant art for 10 days in a row.

When I made the decision, I’d already been drawing a few plants in the style I planned. The change would be to do the drawings consecutively, as part of a 10-day challenge.

Additionally, I would screen-record my drawing process and post it on YouTube each day. So, this 10-day challenge was also the launch of my YouTube channel.

I jumped in without too much planning, beyond shelving my other projects to make time, and looking around to make sure I had approximately 10 plants available to draw.

From there, I basically took it day by day.

Looking back, it was a decided success! Here are the 10 awesome things that came from it.

1. I was able to quickly develop and hone a new art style

When I started this challenge, I had just begun experimenting with a new vector line art style* that was quite different from any of my past work. I was excited to see where I could take it.
