Today I'm Grateful for:
Ice Packs
Comfy Chairs
Low Stress Work Environment
-------------
1hr 20min speedpaint.
In 2016 I started journaling daily. Part of that writing process has been to write 3 things I am grateful for each morning.
I'm going to share those three things along with a speed paint each Mon-Fri.
This practice has benefited me artistically as well as emotionally. My hope is that by sharing this, you guys can feel some of those good vibes too

awwwwwww! What a cuuuuuute little panda! This looks very delicate, the fur fluffy, and I gotta say I
love, love, love the eyes. they looks so gentle, actually, the entire expression on this little one's face
is friendly and happy. i also like how the flöowers are a little blurred. Another awesome drawing!

I just wanted to say I have really been blessed so much by your posting of these challenges - I am so inspired to do something like this. I love this panda's expression and the details you captured.
Do you have any advice for getting started on a speed painting a day challenge like this?

I'm so happy you are enjoying them! Thank you
My tips for starting your own daily exercise:
- If you can, start by anchoring speedpaints to an existing habit.
I chose speed painting because I'd been wanting to improve my speed for a long time and I needed something that wouldn't take too long each day. The daily gratefulness was something I'd already been doing and the two habits just sort of merged into one. I anchored the two together. If you can find something you are already doing daily, try tying your speedpaints to that established habit. The established habit helps remind you to do the new habit.
- Set aside a specific chunk of time everyday to do it. I set aside at least an hour Mon-Fri from 8:30am-9am. I almost always have that time available and it's the first thing I do in the morning when I sit down to work at my desk. Setting aside this time in advance ensures you always have time to do your speedpaints. Then you just show up! Consistency is key to establishing long term habits in your life.
- Keep a daily journal/schedule. Life gets busy. Writing in a planner and/or calendar helps keep you on track with your goals. It also serves as a log so you can look back and review your progress. I check my journal several times a day to keep me on track with my tasks. I find it's easier to empty my brain onto a piece of paper and refer back to it rather than trying to keep all my thoughts, plans, tasks, and goals in my head.
Really the hardest part can be just remembering to do it. Having the schedule is my big secret, haha! Show up everyday and do what you love. Don't allow other distractions to hold your attention during your scheduled painting time.
