I decided to participate in the 100 day project on Instagram by drawing faces. I don’t find faces an easy subject to draw so I know I will need to push through the critical voices in my head to improve my skills! 😉
I hope you will follow my progress on Instagram as art_jill_kuhn as I will be posting most of my face sketches there.
I drew my first 3 faces with ink as a one-liner without removing the pen from the paper. I will be experimenting in other drawing styles to keep it interesting.
I challenge you to try a 100 day project of your choice! It is a great way to learn and have fun improving a skill such as drawing.
Cheers! 🙂

Thanks Catherine! I think you can start whenever you want to – the one on IG just started on April 4th. I’d say, just jump in and go for it! 😃🎨👍

You are off to a good start. I am going to have to find you on Instagram. I may have already done that. Some of these sites are confusing!

such a great idea – anything you do 100 days in a row has to show significant progress. Your faces are awesome. Can’t wait to see what the days ahead bring.

Yes, I agree! The last time I did a 100 day project I was drawing birds and look at where I am now! 🐦😊 Not only did my skills improve but also my confidence. This is what I am hoping for this project. Thanks for your kind comments, Jodi and HAPPY Friday!! 🌼🌷🌸

You’re so much better at drawing faces than I was when I tried it in the 90’s.
I drew George Washington for my first subject. My very first drawing was hilarious and didn’t even resemble GW. Two drawings later you knew who he was supposed to be. 😀 progress!
You’ll be very accomplished after 100 faces I have no doubt.

I hope so, Deborah! 😄 I believe it is about learning the skill of it. I’m much better than when I started taking art classes online in 2013. However, I’m not sure I could draw GW so it looks like him! Lol! Fun to have art goals! ❤🎨

Cheers 👍🏼 Just to inform you, I’m already loving your line drawing style. That day i was really thinking looking at your instagram feed that how did you draw this? I thought it’s a non stop drawing without lifting the pen.

I especially like the first one. The lines have great movement. (K)

Hi Kerfe! I like the first one too. I think less is more when it comes to lines. I started overthinking it with the others so I changed to my Pentel brush pen and a different style. I find it takes several sketches to get to one I like. 😉

I find that often too. I guess it’s warming up. Or maybe I just start to see better what’s going on.
