IF: resolution

Filed under: IF — joshpincusiscrying @ 11:17 pm

The first Illustration Friday challenge word of 2011 is, fittingly, “resolutions”.
but if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow
I usually don’t make New Year’s Resolutions, but this year I thought I would attempt to do one million drawings. That sounded pretty cool. So, I did the math (with a calculator — I’m an artist, after all). In order for me to fulfill my goal of one million drawings in 2011, I would have to create two thousand seven hundred forty every day. This would allow me to skip a few here and there over the course of a year, in case there are some days that I am not feeling particularly creative. At that rate, I will be on course to create one million one hundred drawings. Today, however, is January third and, so far, I have done three illustrations in 2011. I am currently eight thousand two hundred seventeen drawings behind schedule.

My other resolution was to try to be nicer to people, but fuck that.

  4. I don’t know if I’m more impressed with the illustration, or with the fact that an artist can do math… ;)

  5. Your post made me laugh! I think 365 illustrations is a good goal. Sounds like you are on your way. Good luck!
