GG:

Okay, I didn't draw but I did something creative. I wanted to try out this wet cyanotype technique. It was a bit of a failure (maybe I should investigate a bit how it's done beyond a generic "sure, just spray soap and/or vinegar on it") but it has a lot of potential and I'll try again. Instead, I went for a regular cyanotype with a negative I had already made (it takes a while when you're trying to apply this photographic technique to more plastic media like illustration) and I actually nailed it.

See results after the cut.

And I didn't swim, but I biked a bit.

Do chores count?

Doesn't look like much, but it felt like a moderately productive day and that's what I want out of this challenge.

I cut out, drilled holes, filed, and smoothed the edges on what seemed like eleventy billion earrings:



Fortunately my left hand was generous and didn't start cramping until I was almost done. And I was able to make a bonus 3 pair from the scraps! (On a side note, I highly recommend doing hand stretches/omgmakethecrampingstop moves to Seal's Amazing. I almost forgot that my hand hurt, LOL)

Will hopefully get some writing done tonight!
