Day 02 of the 14 Day Art for Self Care Challenge on the Skillshare Discord, Daily Art Practice for Self-Care: 14 Days of Messages To Yourself with @jessicaswift
I ended up making two separate pieces today on the same cardboard sleeve. I watered my plants and then got hit with a stomach bug as I was doing it, so the first half is me watering plants, and bottom “oof” is me dealing with the stomach bug. My stomach was feeling so bad and I felt so out of it when I started trying to draw. It felt like I couldn’t really hear or discern anything except for feeling tired and drained, but I’m glad I got the watering done today before the stomach bug took me out. I didn’t intend for it, but looking at the “oof” now, it sorta looks like the grill of a big red truck. Channeling some Ed Ruscha, whose art I did not know about until I saw an ad for his big yellow/blue “OOF” on the subway.
