Thank you so much for reading this year, during this daily project. It's been fun and challenging and I'm oh so glad that I did it. I drew animals I had never heard of before and probably wouldn't have drawn, and it has made me a better illustrator because of it. Hopefully someday I can gather everything into some sort of published book that I can be proud of. I don't plan on doing another 365 project this year, but I am really excited to spend more of my time on more detailed illustrations. I plan to work on some bigger pieces each month and I'm psyched to share more as these progress!

Happy New Year's Eve friends!
xoxo,
Michelle

The bright blue ones are breed to be that way, 'cause humans can't stop messing!

355: Xantus's Hummingbird

Kinda bugs me that it is "Xantus's" and not "Xantus'." Although, the internet could just be wrong and I'm helping to perpetuate the grammar mistakes here...

349: Wombat

Okay, so these guys are adorable. If you google pictures of a "wombat pouch," their backwards-facing pouch kinda just looks like a baby is coming out of their butt...

So, the downfall of doing a 365 project is that I don't really blog any other things besides that...and I miss that! I'm so happy I did this project, it was really good for me to draw everyday, fun to have new subject matter, and HEY I learned stuff too! But my point being, I have other fun stuff to tell you about! Like, I went to Thailand for 2 weeks (betcha didn't even know I was gone; I planned ahead to post things so I wouldn't get terribly behind...) I have a bunch of photos and stories that I want to share, and I think I am probably just going to wait until after the holidays are over. Start the new year fresh! I want to start blogging more of my everyday things (and hey, I draw other things too!), new projects, and some other fun stuff, so that will most likely be my focus in the new year. More on this to come!
