About This Blog
For a while I have been contemplating about doing one of those "100 Art Challenges". There are several lists around. I have found 3 of them especially interesting and decided to go for it. However, I am not going to decide on only one list (honestly, I could not). Instead, I am trying to do whichever prompt calls me in any of the three lists at any given moment. This will keep me busy for a while :D
You can see the lists and my progress in the foot of this blog.
