Day 102 of 100

Progress: 102%

100 Days of
Digital Art

I've always wanted to learn how to draw, though actually getting started has been a challenge.

I recently ran across the Procreate Beginners Series, and that sparked my interest in digital art again. I've decided to commit to "100 days" (excludes Saturdays) of learning or working on acquiring this skill. View my journey below :D
