On January 1, Lisa Congdon began an incredibly ambitious project. She set out to post a new hand-lettered illustration every single day for the year.
I suck at anything that has to be done every single day. Honestly I don’t even brush my teeth every day.
But she did it! Today Lisa posted her 365th hand-lettered illustration.
Check out the entire project on her blog. Here are a handful of my favorites from the project.
Lisa Congdon is inspiring to me because (like me) she’s a self-taught artist—no fancy art school, no grad school connections with whom to jump-start careers—and didn’t start working as an artist until she was in her thirties.
She’s one of those people that give the self-taught, mid-thirties, bible-college-grad like me a bit of hope for this “career” I’m working on.
Because I have a tendency to want to do everything NOW.
