The 100 Day Project!

Day 5 of the 100 day project! If you've never heard of the 100 day project before it's basically just a virtual art project held on Instagram. You choose what you'd like to make, then do it for 100 days. Even when I wasn't participating I loved following along with those who did. The project…

What’s next?
