Create 365
Throughout this challenge to draw everyday for a year, I learned how to trust myself and how to let go. This series of drawings was a commitment to the rigorous process of creativity, and a pathway to a loving acceptance of failure as part of the process. This collection is a celebration of the creative journey.
Each item on this page is an original drawing created in pastel pencil, pan pastel or occasionally color pencil. Each is signed by me and “dated” with the day in the challenge I completed it.

While working on a commission on seizures I got inspired to work on a short series. The idea is to feature potentially sentient creatures filled with fields of neurons, hopefully to gently nudge the viewer to think about their daily choices and maybe reconsider our definitions of consciousness and sentience. This isn't meant to rally against anyone, but just to poke at us and to nurture a healthy discomfort at the idea of sentient creatures being mistreated.
You don't have to disregard your own nature to respect and accept theirs.
